[LTP] [PATCH] clock_gettime04: relax the time diff in VM

To balance that the test inside a VM can NOT get enough CPU time, which
result in sporadically fails with the time comparing.

clock_gettime04.c:155: PASS: CLOCK_REALTIME: Difference between successive readings is reasonable
clock_gettime04.c:155: PASS: CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE: Difference between successive readings is reasonable
clock_gettime04.c:148: FAIL: CLOCK_MONOTONIC: Difference between successive readings greater than 5 ms (2): 22
clock_gettime04.c:155: PASS: CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE: Difference between successive readings is reasonable
clock_gettime04.c:148: FAIL: CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW: Difference between successive readings greater than 5 ms (1): 22
clock_gettime04.c:148: FAIL: CLOCK_BOOTTIME: Difference between successive readings greater than 5 ms (1): 29
