[DCCP]: Reuse ktime_get_real() calls again

This patch reduces the number of timestamps taken in the receive path
for each packet.

The ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() routine is called in
 * the receive path for each CCID3-controlled packet
 * for the nofeedback timer (if no feedback arrives during 4 RTT)

Currently, when there is no loss, each packet gets timestamped twice.
The patch resolves this by recycling the first timestamp taken on packet
reception for RTT sampling.

When the no_feedback_timer() is called, then the timestamp argument is
simply set to NULL - so that ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() takes care of the logic.
