If you return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, this means this skb will be requeues,
then sent again right away, and this will potentially loop forever.

Also skb_tx_timestamp() would be called multiple times.

I suggest you drop the packet instead.

This code is not correct on a 32bit kernel, since u64 values
can not be safely be read without extra care.
