  For systems that use CPU isolation (via nohz_full), creating or destroying
a socket with  timestamping (SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TX_SWHW) 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.

CC netdev@

SGTM, but could you please add netdev@ when sending patches for network trees ?

Thanks.
