Subject: posix-cpu-timers: Remove pointless comparisons
Patch-mainline: v5.4-rc1
Git-commit: dd6702241337bcd0bae01d2644b7bae1a496d937
References: bsc#1162702

The soft RLIMIT expiry code checks whether the soft limit is greater than
the hard limit. That's pointless because if the soft RLIMIT is greater than
the hard RLIMIT then that code cannot be reached as the hard RLIMIT check
is before that and already killed the process.

Remove it.
