Subject: ag71xx: Move timestamp struct member outside of struct.
With this change, the timestamp variable is only used in ag71xx_check_dma_stuck. Small tx speedup.
Based on a Qualcomm commit. ag->timestamp = jiffies was not replaced with netif_trans_update(dev) because of this quote:
It should be noted that after this series several instances
of netif_trans_update() are useless (if they occur in
.ndo_start_xmit and driver doesn't set LLTX flag -- stack already
did an update).
