rtla/timerlat: Do not stop user-space if a cpu is offline

If no CPU list is passed, timerlat in user-space will dispatch
one thread per sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF). However, not all
CPU might be available, for instance, if HT is disabled.

Currently, rtla timerlat is stopping the session if an user-space
thread cannot set affinity to a CPU, or if a running user-space
thread is killed. However, this is too restrictive.

So, reduce the error to a debug message, and rtla timerlat run as
long as there is at least one user-space thread alive.
