See previous comment in v2

FYI, no need for a cover letter for a single patch. Also, I think the
cc list can be more concise. Mainly netdev.

Same as above. This is not about zerocopy.

Asked elsewhere, but best answered here: given that xmit_more delays
delivery to the NIC until the last segment in a train, is the first
segment in your opinion still the best to attach the timestamp request
to?

To reiterate, we do not want to need a follow-up patch to disable
xmit_more when timestamps are requested.
