What if update_process_times/run_posix_cpu_timers is called again before
this task does task_work_run() ?

somehow it should check that ->cpu_timer_work is not already queued...

Or suppose that this is called when task_work_run() executes this
cpu_timer_work. Looks like you need another flag checked by
__run_posix_cpu_timers() and cleare in posix_cpu_timers_work() ?

Oleg.
