Thanks for adding these tests.

For tcp, it may be useful to eventually also add packetdrill tests
to validate the more subtle semantics, such as that the timestamp is
returned only when reading the last byte of the skb.

No need to revise just for this, but if submitting a v3:

please use sizeof(struct iphdr). And maybe test PF_INET6, too.
