Subject: [PATCH net-next 6/7] net-timestamp: ENQ timestamp on enqueue to traffic shaping layer

Kernel transmit latency is often incurred in the traffic shaping
layer. This patch adds a new timestamp on transmission just before
entering traffic shaping. When data travels through multiple devices
(bonding, tunneling, ...) each device will export an individual
timestamp.
