Sorry, I misread the code.

You have two conditionals inside, and I misread where you were doing the checking of the SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP flag.

I would do the following :

if (unlikely(skb_shinfo(skb)->tx_flags & SKBTX_HWTSTAMP) &&
    gem_ptp_do_txstamp(queue, skb, desc)) {
  ....
}

Rather than have two nested if statements, relying on the short circuiting to exit early.

The patch looks technically correct to me now that I'm reading it properly.
