[PATCH] can-doc: Add hint about getting timestamps

[Stefan Tatschner <rumpelsepp@sevenbyte.org>]

This patch adds a hint about how to get timestamps of received
CAN frames with ioctl(2). This hint has been applied to the
former SocketCAN Documentation, but it got lost during mainlining
the first bits and pieces to linux kernel.

+  An accurate timestamp can be obtained with an ioctl(2) call after reading
+  a message from the socket:
+
+    struct timeval tv;
+    ioctl(s, SIOCGSTAMP, &tv);

+  The timestamp has a resolution of one microsecond and is set automatically

   Remark about CAN FD (flexible data rate) support:
 
   Generally the handling of CAN FD is very similar to the formerly described
