If the SynIC timer message delivery fails due to SINT message slot being busy, there's no point to attempt starting the timer again until we're notified of the slot being released by the guest (via EOM or EOI). Even worse, when a oneshot timer fails to deliver its message, its re-arming with an expiration time in the past leads to immediate retry of the delivery, and so on, without ever letting the guest vcpu to run and release the slot, which results in a livelock. To avoid that, only start the timer when there's no timer message pending delivery. When there is, meaning the slot is busy, the processing will be restarted upon notification from the guest that the slot is released.
