Other timestamps can be configured, such as hardware timestamps.

As the follow-on patch shows, there is also the issue of overlap
between SO_TIMESTAMP(NS) and SO_TIMESTAMPING.

Don't select OLD on timestamp disable, which may only disable
some of the ongoing timestamping.

Setting based on the syscall is simpler, too. __sock_set_timestamps
already uses for SO_TIMESTAMP(NS) the valbool approach I
suggest for SO_TIMESTAMPING.

The fallthrough can also be removed. My rough patch missed that.
