I saw the discrepancy while cooking

commit 165573e41f2f66ef98940cf65f838b2cb575d9d1    tcp: secure_seq:
add back ports to TS offset

For this reason, it is better to use net-next tree and avoid merge conflicts.

Note that TCP_TIMESTAMP getsockopt() is probably not used while
another thread is doing a connect(),
it is mostly used for TCP_REPAIR. No need for stable backports.
