No, SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID with SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_TCP
is legitimate. It should fall through to initializing sk->sk_tskey to zero.
Only stream sockets should use the special case where numbering
is bytestream and computed by subtracting the seqno from the seqno
at the time that the option is enabled.

I made the same error when later returning the tskey in
__skb_tstamp_tx:

        if (sk->sk_tsflags & SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID) {
                serr->ee.ee_data = skb_shinfo(skb)->tskey;
                if (sk->sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP)
                        serr->ee.ee_data -= sk->sk_tskey;
        }

This has no effect if sk->sk_tskey is initialized to 0 with your patch. Still,
it should not treat SOCK_RAW as a TCP sock here, either. Please
add this if you're about to send the patch. Or I can send it separately,
if you prefer. Thanks for the quick fix.
