Mike Galbraith reported that the new warning in thread_group_cputimer()
triggers en masse with Amarok running.

Oleg Nesterov observed:

  Can't fastpath_timer_check()->thread_group_cputimer() have the
  false warning too? Suppose we had the timer, then posix_cpu_timer_del()
  removes this timer, but task_cputime_zero(&sig->cputime_expires) still
  not true.

Remove the spurious debug warning.
