I strongly disagree with this renaming (sorry to disagree with Willem).

The i210 and i225 chips call this LaunchTime in their programmers 
datasheets, and even in the driver code[1].

Using this "txtime" name in the code is also confusing, because how can 
people reading the code know the difference between:
  - tmo_request_timestamp and tmo_request_txtime
