drop "in mono clock base or "

drop this: whenever in realtime clock base, tstamp_type is zero, so
the above shorter statement always holds.

I had to find BPF_RSH to understand this abbreviation.

use SHIFT instead of RSH, as that is so domain specific?

Peculiar indentation?

Just FYI that I'm not the best person to review the BPF part.
Thankfully Martin is helping you with that.
