For systems that use CPU isolation (via nohz_full), creating or destroying
a socket with timestamping (SOCK_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE) might cause a
static key to be enabled/disabled. This in turn causes undesired
IPIs to isolated CPUs.

So enable the static key unconditionally, if CPU isolation is enabled,
thus avoiding the IPIs.

v2: mention SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TX_SWHW in the commit log (Willem de Bruijn / Paolo Abeni)
v3: SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TX_SWHW is irrelevant (Willem de Bruijn)

Can this be included in the existing net_dev_init
subsys_initcall?

Aside from that small question LGTM.

You sent a v4, but can you answer this question?
