[LTP] [PATCH] Remove ftime and sys/timeb.h

The two case use ftime to get the current milliseconds and it was
used to generate random value. Use gettimeofday() to get the microseconds
can reach the same aim.

This also fixes the travis build error[1] on Fedora:Rawhide because the <sys/timeb.h>
has been deprecated[2].
