Many of the Intel Ethernet drivers call skb_tx_timestamp() earlier than necessary. Move the calls to this function to the latest point possible, just prior to notifying hardware of the new Tx packet when we bump the tail register. This affects i40e, iavf, igb, igc, and ixgbe. The e100, e1000, e1000e, fm10k, and ice drivers already call the skb_tx_timestamp() function just prior to indicating the Tx packet to hardware, so they do not need to be changed.

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.
