Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 5/5] net-timestamp: ACK timestamp for bytestreams

This patch adds send() flag MSG_TSTAMP_ACK, a request for a timestamp
when the last byte in the send buffer is acknowledged. It implements
the feature for TCP.

The timestamp is generated when the TCP socket cumulative ACK is
moved beyond the tracked seqno for the first time. This corresponds
to the other peer having received all data up until this byte. The
feature ignores SACK and FACK, because those acknowledge the
specific byte, but not necessarily the entire contents of the buffer
passed in send()
