    dpaa2-eth: utilize skb->cb[0] for hardware timestamping · 1cf773bd

    This patch is a preparation for next hardware one-step timestamping
    support. For DPAA2, the one step timestamping configuration on
    hardware registers has to be done when there is no one-step timestamping
    packet in flight. So we will have to use workqueue and skb queue
    for such packets transmitting, to make sure waiting the last packet has
    already been sent on hardware, and starting to transmit the current one.
    
    So the tx timestamping flag in private data may not reflect the actual
    request for the one-step timestamping packets of skb queue. This also
    affects skb headroom allocation. Let's use skb->cb[0] to mark the
    timestamping request for each skb.
