[PATCH for-5.1] hw/timer/imx_epit: Avoid assertion when CR.SWR is written

[Peter Maydell]

The imx_epit device has a software-controllable reset triggered by
setting the SWR bit in the CR register. An error in commit cc2722ec83ad9
means that we will end up assert()ing if the guest does this, because
the code in imx_epit_write() starts ptimer transactions, and then
imx_epit_reset() also starts ptimre transactions, triggering
"ptimer_transaction_begin: Assertion `!s->in_transaction' failed".

The cleanest way to avoid this double-transaction is to move the
start-transaction for the CR write handling down below the check of
the SWR bit.

I don't have a test image for KZM so this is the minimal
obviously-safe change. I'm pretty sure that actually we could
add a "break" after the imx_epit_reset() call because all of
the work done by the following code is duplicating the ptimer
setup done by the reset function. But I'm not really happy making
that change without a test image...
