Hm, assuming another call to that function happens while the first one has not
reached the restraining statement later. But if its that critical, I'd even feel
uneasy about doing an index++-
Your code now leaves e->index set to 1 after the call. Which might upset other
code. What about

e->stamps[e->index] = jiffies;
e->index = (e->index + 1) % ip_pkt_list_tot;
