One thing which just popped up in my head -- this interface may be used not
only by criu but any application which wants to create timer with specified
id (hell know why, but whatever). As far as I understand we don't provide
an interface to _read_ this property, don't we? Thus criu will restore such
application which already has this bit set incorrectly.
