you cannot send 100% valid MIDI time code on a Linux system without
the high resolution timers patch or some other interrupt source that provides
a suitable timing resolution.

MIDI time code is not just a sequence of bytes, it has very precise
semantics about when those bytes are to be delivered. there is no
mechanism in a default linux kernel on 99%-100% of all hardware today
that can implement those semantics.

i know that this isn't directly related to your question, but i wanted
to alert you to this issue. although other devices will be able to
chase your MTC data stream, some or even all will not lock to it
because it is jittery/bursty.
