The point of this code is to call all possible kernel variants, so we
cant just change it like this.

I guess that the easiest fix is to set the new_time to a fixed value
that is not going to overflow.

Something like:

diff --git a/testcases/kernel/syscalls/stime/stime01.c b/testcases/kernel/syscalls/stime/stime01.c
