The biggest change is switching to monotonic clock (ktime) and
high resolution timers for the interpacket delay.

Ok, even though there were some issues with the TX return
values wrt. VLANS, I've applied all of this.

The cleanups were good and hrtimers and ktime_t are definitely
the direction this code should go in.

It would be good if this new stuff got a lot of testing and debugging
though.

BTW, to make this build in all cases I had to add a symbol export
for hrtimer_init_on_stack().
