We should always get rid of it. I don't see a reason to keep the timer
alive if the devices are going away. This looks like a memory leak.
(hmp) device_add virtio-mouse-pci,id=test
(hmp) device_del test
-> guest notified, timer pending.
-> guest does not react for some reason (e.g. crash)
-> s390_pcihost_timer_cb(). Timer not pending anymore. qmp_unplug().

-> Device deleted. Timer expired (not pending) but not freed.

Looks like the only time we would hit this is when the device is already 
in standby (i.e. not configured). So this makes sense to me.
