timerfd: add flags check
As requested by Michael, add a missing check for valid flags in
timerfd_settime(), and make it return EINVAL in case some extra bits are
set.
Michael said:
If this is to be any use to userland apps that want to check flag
support (perhaps it is too late already), then the sooner we get it
into the kernel the better: 2.6.29 would be good; earlier stables as
well would be even better.
