posix-cpu-timers: Prevent spuriously armed 0-value itimer
Resetting/stopping an itimer eventually leads to it being reprogrammed
with an actual "0" value. As a result the itimer expires on the next
tick, triggering an unexpected signal.
To fix this, make sure that
struct signal_struct::it[CPUCLOCK_PROF/VIRT]::expires is set to 0 when
setitimer() passes a 0 it_value, indicating that the timer must stop.
Fixes: 406dd42 ("posix-cpu-timers: Force next expiration recalc after itimer reset")
