    Use find_task_by_vpid in posix timers
    
    All the functions that need to lookup a task by pid in posix timers obtain
    this pid from a user space, and thus this value refers to a task in the same
    namespace, as the current task lives in.
    
    So the proper behavior is to call find_task_by_vpid() here.
