   Another way is to just store jiffies (= 10 or 1ms accuracy) 
   
   This should be nearly zero cost and accurate enough at least for TCP.
   
TCP doesn't use it Andi.  SO_RECVSTAMP etc. uses it and that
MUST be accurate.

People, start approaching this from an actually implementable
angle, not one's that have no basis in reality :)
