Also remove reference to MONO_DELIVERY_TIME_MASK, or instead refer to
skb_tstamp_type.

Technically this leaves the tstamp_type undefined if (skb, 0, CLOCK_REAL)

Should this be if (skb->tstamp_type), in line with skb_clear_tstamp,
right above?

In anticipation of more tstamp_types, explicitly set to CLOCK_MONO.
