Yes, and also get_timestamp() for skb_get_tx_timestamp(). It's easy to patch,
but I was hoping we can merge it through the io_uring tree without deps on
net-next and add const to the new helpers after. It's definitely less trouble
than orchestrating a separate branch otherwise. FWIW, it'd be fine to add
const to the existing helpers in the meantime as long as the new functions
stay non-const for now. Hope that works
