Users can write the following code to enable the bpf extension:
int flags = SK_BPF_CB_TX_TIMESTAMPING;
int opts = SK_BPF_CB_FLAGS;
bpf_setsockopt(skops, SOL_SOCKET, opts, &flags, sizeof(flags));

The commit message should explain what is added/changed and why it is needed.
The above only tells how it is used, and the subject "bpf: add support for bpf_setsockopt()" is unclear. Add what support? Also, both get- and set-sockopt() are changed.

Subject: "bpf: Add networking timestamping support to bpf_get/setsockopt()"

What: The new SK_BPF_CB_FLAGS and new SK_BPF_CB_TX_TIMESTAMPING are added to bpf_get/setsockopt.

Why: The later patch will implement the BPF networking timestamping. The BPF program will use bpf_setsockopt(SK_BPF_CB_FLAGS, SK_BPF_CB_TX_TIMESTAMPING) to enable the BPF networking timestamping on a socket.
