[LTP] [PATCH v2] syscalls/timer_settime03.c: Add kconfig requirement of CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y

[Zhao Gongyi]

Test will fail when CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS is not set to y, because the return
value of timer_getoverrun is equal to expiry_time_values/interval. When
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS is set to y, interval is equal to 1 nsec.When
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS is not set to y, interval is equal to HZ*1000000 nsec,
and the return value of timer_getoverrun will not be greater than or equal to
{DELAYTIMER_MAX} in this testcase.
See https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-12896.
