I'll put my feet on the bulkhead occasionally, but only with socks on, not bare feet or shoes. And I don't have the feet higher than my head level like many I've seen do. I usually do it as a replacement for having no footrest and my feet are usually no higher than the magazine pouch level.
Socks or no socks, the bulkhead wall is not a footrest and using it as one is a health hazard. You are exposing other passengers to whatever you walked through recently more so than than the carpet (with your shoes on) and what ever is living in your socks and feet (with your shoes off).
