Cover letter [PATCH v5 0/2] pktgen changes

The following series introduce some pktgen changes

Patch01:
Cleanup my own work when I introduced NO_TIMESTAMP.

Patch02:
Took over patch from Alexei, and addressed my own concerns, as Alexie is too busy with other work, and this will provide an easy tool for measuring ingress path performance, which is a hot topic ATM.

Changes were primarily user interface related. Introduced a separate "xmit_mode" setting, instead of stealing one of the dev flags like Alexei did.
