I'm not sure if the new flag needs to be documented as well? After
this patch, people may search the key word in the documentation file
and then find nothing.
If we have this flag here, normally it means we can pass it through
setsockopt, so is it expected? If it's an exception, I reckon that we
can forbid passing/setting this option in sock_set_timestamping() and
document this rule?
Thanks,
Jason
