[patch 09/44] posix-cpu-timers: Use common permission check in posix_cpu_clock_get()

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Mon Aug 19 2019 - 11:48:38 EST


Replace the next slightly different copy of permission checks. That also
removes the necessarity to check the return value of the sample functions
because the clock id is already validated.
