From: YeXingchen <ye.xingchen@xxxxxxxxxx>
The CVE-1999-0524 became a medium risk vulnerability in May of this year.
In some embedded systems, firewalls such as iptables maybe cannot to use.
For embedded systems where firewalls can't be used and devices that don't
require icmp timestamp, provide the icmp_timestamp_ignore_all interface,
which ignores all icmp timestamp messages to circumvent the vulnerability.
