Cyrill, you are right. I moved this check together with
itimerspec64_valid(). The idea was to call itimerspec64_valid() after
applying clock offsets but for that, we need to know clockid.

Let's wait a bit for other comments to this patch set and then we will
fix all things what will be found.

Thanks,
Andrei
