KVM: PIT: support mode 4
The in-kernel PIT emulation ignores pending timers if operating under mode 4, which for example DragonFlyBSD uses (and Plan9 too, apparently). Mode 4 seems to be similar to one-shot mode, other than the fact that it starts counting after the next CLK pulse once programmed, while mode 1 starts counting immediately, so add a FIXME to enhance precision. Fixes sourceforge bug 1952988. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Acked-by: Sheng Yang <sheng.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
