Call skb_tx_timestamp() within can_put_echo_skb() so that a software tx
timestamp gets attached to the skb.
There two main reasons to include this call in can_put_echo_skb():
* It easily allow to enable the tx timestamp on all devices with
just one small change.
* According to Documentation/networking/timestamping.rst, the tx
timestamps should be generated in the device driver as close as possible,
but always prior to passing the packet to the network interface. During the
call to can_put_echo_skb(), the skb gets cloned meaning that the driver
should not dereference the skb variable anymore after can_put_echo_skb()
returns. This makes can_put_echo_skb() the very last place we can use the
skb without having to access the echo_skb[] array.
Remark: by default, skb_tx_timestamp() does nothing. It needs to be activated
by passing the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE flag either through socket options
or control messages.
References:
* Support for the error queue in CAN RAW sockets (which is needed for
tx timestamps) was introduced in:
https://git.kernel.org//torvalds/c/eb88531bdbfaafb827192d1fc6c5a3fcc4fadd96
* Put the call to skb_tx_timestamp() just before adding it to the
array:

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.
