Subject[RFC PATCH 5/6] cpu-timers: change arm_timer() locking
Date
Spread p->sighand->siglock locking scope to assure signal->cputimer
is always running when we are setuping signal->cputime_expires.

This further assure we do not iterate over all threads in
fastpath_timer_check() when calling thread_group_cputimer().
