Logging is done using time of day; that is not a posix mistake but a
real need. Users do not file complaints based on a server's boot time or
some random monotonic time; they report a problem based on time-of-day.
Allowing bpf programs to timeofday makes it easier to troubleshoot and
correlate kernel side events to userspace logs.
