Subject: [patch V2 05/38] itimers: Use quick sample function

get_itimer() locks sighand lock and checks whether the timer is already
expired. If it is not expired then the thread group cputime accounting is
already enabled. Use the sampling function not the one which is meant for
starting a timer.
