From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 4c16128b6271e70c8743178e90cccee147858503 ] At least UDP / TCP stacks can now cook skbs with a tstamp using MONOTONIC base (or arbitrary values with SCM_TXTIME) Since loopback driver does not call (directly or indirectly) skb_scrub_packet(), we need to clear skb->tstamp so that net_timestamp_check() can eventually resample the time, using ktime_get_real(). Fixes: 80b14dee2bea ("net: Add a new socket option for a future transmit time.") Fixes: fb420d5d91c1 ("tcp/fq: move back to CLOCK_MONOTONIC") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
