Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: loopback: clear skb->tstamp before netif_rx()

At least UDP / TCP stacks can now cook skbs with a tstamp using
MONOTONIC base (or arbitrary values with SCM_TXTIME)

Since loopback driver does not call (directly or indirectly)
skb_scrub_packet(), we need to clear skb->tstamp so that
net_timestamp_check() can eventually resample the time,
using ktime_get_real().

Fixes: 80b14dee2bea ("net: Add a new socket option for a future transmit time.")
Fixes: fb420d5d91c1 ("tcp/fq: move back to CLOCK_MONOTONIC")
