okay. Can we move the check to sock_set_timestamping()/ setsockopt()
time? On the plus side we could throw an error instead silently dropping
packets. This might be a late win given that you describe the users as
legacy users.
I'm not sure if the "permission" can change over time and so get revoked
while an application is running.
