Oh, I found:
# grep icmpv6_time *
icmp.c:int sysctl_icmpv6_time = 1*HZ;
icmp.c: int tmo = sysctl_icmpv6_time;

Is HZ completly arch independed? Afair, it was CPU depended (like
grep HZ include/asm/param.h) shows.
Mho: Better name:
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/icmp/all/icmpv6_rate
I would suggest use of unit 1/s and run conversion internally.
Therfore
1 -> 1/s
10 -> 10/s
100 -> 100/s
0.1 -> 1/10s
