The call to add_timer was issued before local_int.lock was taken and before
timer_due was set to 0. If the timer expires before the lock is being taken,
the timer function will set timer_due to 1 and exit before the vcpu falls
asleep. Depending on other external events, the vcpu might sleep forever.
This fix pulls setting timer_due to the beginning of the function before
add_timer, which ensures correct behavior.
