LoongArch: KVM: Move unconditional delay into timer clear scenery

When timer interrupt arrives in guest kernel, guest kernel clears the
timer interrupt and program timer with the next incoming event.

During this stage, timer tick is -1 and timer interrupt status is
disabled in ESTAT register. KVM hypervisor need write zero with timer
tick register and wait timer interrupt injection from HW side, and
then clear timer interrupt.

So there is 2 cycle delay in KVM hypervisor to emulate such scenery,
and the delay is unnecessary if there is no need to clear the timer
interrupt.

Here move 2 cycle delay into timer clear scenery and add timer ESTAT
checking after delay, and set max timer expire value if timer interrupt
does not arrive still.
