SubjectRe: [PATCH 3.10 06/31] tcp: tcp_make_synack() should clear skb->tstamp
From
Right.

Bug was introduced in 3.18, the Fixes: tag tells us ;)

git describe --contains 7faee5c0d514
v3.18-rc1~52^2~148^2

Note that it does not hurt having this backport to prior kernel versions.

Field is already 0 after skb allocation/cloning.
