timers/itimer: Keep a nonzero value at CPU timer expiry

get_cpu_itimer() returns a zero remaining time when the sampled CPU time
is exactly equal to the nonzero expiry. This makes an armed ITIMER_VIRTUAL
or ITIMER_PROF timer appear disarmed.

The cputime cleanup replaced cputime_le(), which implements <=, with <.
Restore the inclusive comparison so the equality case returns TICK_NSEC,
like the overdue case and set_process_cpu_timer().
