util/timer: avoid deadlock when shutting down

When we shut down a guest we disable the timers. However this can
cause deadlock if the guest has queued some async work that is trying
to advance system time and spins forever trying to wind time forward.
Pay attention to the return code and bail early if we can't wind time
forward.
