Support hw SCM_TSTAMP_SND case for bpf timestamping. Add a new sock_ops callback, BPF_SOCK_OPS_TSTAMP_SND_HW_CB. This callback will occur at the same timestamping point as the user space's hardware SCM_TSTAMP_SND. The BPF program can use it to get the same SCM_TSTAMP_SND timestamp without modifying the user-space application. To avoid increasing the code complexity, replace SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP with SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP_NOBPF instead of changing numerous callers from driver side using SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP. The new definition of SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP means the combination tests of socket timestamping and bpf timestamping. After this patch, drivers can work under the bpf timestamping. Considering some drivers don't assign the skb with hardware timestamp, this patch does the assignment and then BPF program can acquire the hwstamp from skb directly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
