Measure ITIMER_PROF and ITIMER_VIRT timers interval error between real ticks and requested by user. Take it into account when scheduling next tick. This patch introduce possibility where time between two consecutive tics is smaller then requested interval, it preserve however dependency that n tick is generated not earlier than n*interval time - counting from the beginning of periodic signal generation.
