This is not the way to fix it.

Enabling NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING puts extra checks into the hot path
for every skb passed to netif_receive_skb(). It only makes sense to
pay this extra cost if you actually have a time stamping PHY.

So instead, move the classifier routine out of timestamping.c to a
place where it is always compiled into the stack.

Thanks,
Richard
