I thought I would mention this on the small chance it was an accidental change.

The new __net_timestamp(skb) method uses ktime_get_real which is exported GPL only.

Now, such evil modules must call net_enable_timestamp(), causing all packets to be timestamped, not just the ones the evil module is interested in...

Thanks,
Ben
