    net-timestamp: Make the clone operation stand-alone from phy timestamping · 62bccb8c
    Alexander Duyck authored
    The phy timestamping takes a different path than the regular timestamping
    does in that it will create a clone first so that the packets needing to be
    timestamped can be placed in a queue, or the context block could be used.
    
    In order to support these use cases I am pulling the core of the code out
    so it can be used in other drivers beyond just phy devices.
    
    In addition I have added a destructor named sock_efree which is meant to
    provide a simple way for dropping the reference to skb exceptions that
    aren't part of either the receive or send windows for the socket, and I
    have removed some duplication in spots where this destructor could be used
    in place of sock_edemux.
