Could you please include an example on how to use
this in userspace?

A proper place for this would be Documentation/net/

At the moment I cannot imagine how to use this and how
to correlate the sent packet with the timestamp.

That would also be a way to test your implementation and
test any changes done later to it. This will avoid future bitrot.

Many Thanks!

Best Regards
