rtla-timerlat allows a *thread* latency threshold to be set via the -T/--thread option. However, the timerlat tracer calls this *total* latency (stop_tracing_total_us), and stops tracing also when the return-to-user latency is over the threshold.

Change the behavior of the timerlat BPF program to reflect what the timerlat tracer is doing, to avoid discrepancy between stopping collecting data in the BPF program and stopping tracing in the timerlat tracer.
