[PATCH] arm_timer: remove a racy and obsolete PF_EXITING check

arm_timer() checks PF_EXITING to prevent BUG_ON(->exit_state)
in run_posix_cpu_timers().

However, for some reason it does so only for CPUCLOCK_PERTHREAD
case (which is imho wrong).

Also, this check is not reliable, PF_EXITING could be set on
another cpu without any locks/barriers just after the check,
so it can't prevent from attaching the timer to the exiting
task.

The previous patch makes this check unneeded.
