In addition, there is no reason to keep expired timer tick deferred, so
just perform the tick from ptimer_get_count().

I noticed an issue here... The problem is that device reset invokes ptimer_stop() that invokes ptimer_get_count() that might cause the tick after reset, i.e. bogus bh would be invoked after QEMU reset. I have reproduced that issue.

The solution might be to introduce ptimer_reset() that would stop QEMU timer and reset delta/load/period without invoking ptimer_get_count. And of course all devices should be updated to use new ptimer_reset() prior to "Perform tick and counter wrap around if timer already expired" patch, but that's not an issue I suppose. Please let me know if you have any objections, I'm leaning to do it in V11.

void ptimer_reset(ptimer_state *s)
{
    timer_del(s->timer);
    s->enabled = 0;
    s->period_frac = 0;
    s->period = 0;
    s->delta = 0;
    s->limit = 0;
}
