Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] tcp: make SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE feature per socket

From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@...cent.com>

Normally, if we want to record and print the rx timestamp after
tcp_recvmsg_locked(), we must enable both SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE
and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE flags, from which we also can notice
through running rxtimestamp binary in selftests (see testcase 7).

However, there is one particular case that fails the selftests with
"./rxtimestamp: Expected swtstamp to not be set." error printing in
testcase 6.

How does it happen? When we keep running a thread starting a socket
and set SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_HARDWARE option first, then running
./rxtimestamp, it will fail. The reason is the former thread
switching on netstamp_needed_key that makes the feature global,
every skb going through netif_receive_skb_list_internal() function
will get a current timestamp in net_timestamp_check(). So the skb
will have timestamp regardless of whether its socket option has
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE or not.

After this patch, we can pass the selftest and control each socket
as we want when using rx timestamp feature.
