This sounded so unbelievable to me that I took a quick look at the code to
see what I'd have to do to get rid of it. It appears that gettimeofday is
not called for every packet; just for ICMP timestamp requests and for IP
options (ip_options_build and ip_options_compile).
Stop lookin in the IP code. Look at where we get the packet
from the device, which is one layer up.
