Actually,the problem described above happened during the capture kernel booting.

In my system, sometimes there is a pending physical timer interrupt(30)
when the first kernel panic and the status is kept until the capture kernel booting.

So, this interrupt will be handled during capture kernel booting.

Becasue we use virt timer interrupt but not physical timer interrupt in capture kernel,
the interrupt 30 has no action handler.

Besides, I think we need to do exception check in this function just
like "handle_fasteoi_irq" does.
