The state tracking changes broke the expiry active check by not writing to
it and instead sitting timers_active, which is already set.
That's not a big issue as the actual expiry is protected by sighand lock,
so concurrent handling is not possible. That means that the second task
which invokes that function executes the expiry code for nothing.
Write to the proper flag.
Also add a check whether the flag is set into check_process_timers(). That
check had been missing in the code before the rework already. The check for
another task handling the expiry of process wide timers was only done in
the fastpath check. If the fastpath check returns true because a per task
timer expired, then the checking of process wide timers was done in
parallel which is as explained above just a waste of cycles.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
