Subject: bsdacct: make check timer accept a bsd_acct_struct argument
From: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@xxxxxxxxxx>

We're going to have many bsd_acct_struct instances, not just one, so the
timer (currently working with a global one) has to know which one to work
with.

Use a handy setup_timer macro for it (thanks to Oleg for one).
