Any idea of why timestamping is asked on AF_UNIX in the first place ?

For messages sent/received on af_unix sockets, in which place timestamp
is taken ?

Is it at the time skb is cooked and stored in receive queue, or the time
it was dequeued ?

In any case, is your patch changing af_unix behavior ? It is not clear
from your changelog...
