When QEMU works in icount mode cpu_restore_state function performs two actions:
restoring the program counter and updating icount to the correct value.
kvmvapic's patch_instruction function is called by cpu_report_tpr_access
function which also invokes cpu_restore_state. It results to calling
cpu_restore_state twice - in cpu_report_tpr_access and in patch_instruction.
When icount is disabled second call is safe. But when icount is enabled,
cpu_restore_state modifies instructions counter twice, which leads to incorrect
behavior. This patch removes useless cpu_restore_state call from kvmvapic.
