Good idea. I noticed that while browsing the code over the weekend, too.

One question I have is whether the code warrants adding a static
inline to skbuff.h. Regular socket paths do not use the test, as they
return all timestamps together.

Also, packet sockets use the flags these SOF_... constants passed from
userspace directly, but regular socket paths convert this into socket
flags SOCK_..., so this code is more packet socket specific than it
seems. See __sock_recv_timestamp. I'd keep the function in
net/packet/af_packet.c solely for this reason, or add a comment.
