doesn't look complete, see patch below, but please read on:

the kj todo has an entry about "update last_rx after netif_rx", 
i wonder what that timestamping is good for, and newer 
sources 2.4.27 and 2.6.8 show 2 occurences of last_rx.

patches doing that are for young 2.4:
http://seclists.org/linux-kernel/2001/Feb/4846.html

i presume that this task is outdated,
thanks for putting light on that.
