I see, thanks, added Rafal's email to the ignore list, 
I'm quite sure Eric's email address works.

But then you need to add this check in the padding/fcs call site and
the place where NOCRC is set. If you wrap the check for SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP
in the helper with likely() and remove the inline - will the compiler
not split the function and inline just that check? And leave the rest
as a functionname.part... thing?
