[PATCH] timers/itimer: Preserve nonzero remaining time for active timers

[Avi Weiss]

itimer_get_remtime() preserves positive remainders below one
microsecond, but struct timeval only stores whole microseconds.
So, for example, the conversion to tv_usec truncates a 500 ns
remainder to zero, causing getitimer(ITIMER_REAL) to report an
active timer as disarmed.

Clamp active remainders below one microsecond to one microsecond
so they remain nonzero after conversion.
