The packetmmap tx ring should only return timestamps if requested via
setsockopt PACKET_TIMESTAMP, as documented. This allows compatibility
with non-timestamp aware user-space code which checks
tp_status == TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE; not expecting additional timestamp
flags to be set in tp_status.
Fixes: b9c32fb27170 ("packet: if hw/sw ts enabled in rx/tx ring, report which ts we got")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
