arm/arm64: KVM: Fix ordering of timer/GIC on guest entry
As we now inject the timer interrupt when we're about to enter the guest, it makes a lot more sense to make sure this happens before the vgic code queues the pending interrupts. Otherwise, we get the interrupt on the following exit, which is not great for latency (and leads to all kind of bizarre issues when using with active interrupts at the HW level).
