From: Jason Xing <kernelxing at tencent.com>
Make sure the call of skb_tx_timestamp as close to the doorbell.
In stmmac_tso_xmit(), adjust the order of setting SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS and
generating software timestamp so that without SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TX_SWHW
being set the software and hardware timestamps will not appear at the
same time (Please see __skb_tstamp_tx()).
