Software should see timer counter wraparound only after IRQ being triggered.
This fixes regression introduced by the commit 5a50307 ("hw/ptimer: Perform
counter wrap around if timer already expired"), resulting in monotonic timer
jumping backwards on SPARC emulated machine running NetBSD guest OS, as
reported by Mark Cave-Ayland.
