kernel: Workaround for double lock of spinlock in user timers.

The thread that is being [un]scheduled already has its time_lock locked
in {stop|continue}_cpu_timers(). When updating the TeamTimeUserTimer,
the team is asked for its cpu time. Team::CPUTime() then iterates the
threads of the team and locks the time_lock of the thread again.

This workaround passes a possibly locked thread through the relevant
functions so Team::CPUTime() can decide whether or not a thread it
iterates needs to be locked or not.

This works around #11032 and its duplicates #11314 and #11344.

kernel: Protect UserTimers with sUserTimerLock


# 24df6592 11-Jun-2011 Ingo Weinhold <ingo_weinhold@gmx.de>

Merged signals-merge branch into trunk with the following changes:
* Reorganized the kernel locking related to threads and teams.
* We now discriminate correctly between process and thread signals. Signal
handlers have been moved to teams. Fixes #5679.
* Implemented real-time signal support, including signal queuing, SA_SIGINFO
support, sigqueue(), sigwaitinfo(), sigtimedwait(), waitid(), and the addition
of the real-time signal range. Closes #1935 and #2695.
* Gave SIGBUS a separate signal number. Fixes #6704.
* Implemented <time.h> clock and timer support, and fixed/completed alarm() and
[set]itimer(). Closes #5682.
* Implemented support for thread cancellation. Closes #5686.
* Moved send_signal() from <signal.h> to <OS.h>. Fixes #7554.
* Lots over smaller more or less related changes.
