Fix the build failure caused by the undefined `CLONE_NEWTIME`.  
Include the `linux/sched.h` header file where the function is defined to 
ensure successful compilation of the selftests.

Yes, I noticed that sched.h is already included, but I still encountered 
an "undeclared CLONE_NEWTIME" error during compilation.

Error I got:
CC       vdso_test_getrandom
vdso_test_getrandom.c: In function ‘kselftest’:
vdso_test_getrandom.c:257:29: error: ‘CLONE_NEWTIME’ undeclared (first

I found that CLONE_NEWTIME is declared in both sched.h and 
linux/sched.h. Since sched.h was already included, it was surprising 
that the error persisted. Adding linux/sched.h as a header resolved the 
issue, and the selftests compiled successfully after that.

Yes, I ensured that I properly built the kernel headers before building 
the selftests by following the documentation provided here 
(https://docs.kernel.org/dev-tools/kselftest.html#running-the-selftests-hotplug-tests-are-run-in-limited-mode). 
I used the 'make headers' command as part of the process.

Let me know if there’s anything further you'd like me to verify or adjust.

Thank you for your time and feedback!
