[PATCH v8 net-next 02/12] net: add hwtstamping helpers for stackable net devices

From: Maxim Georgiev <glipus at gmail.com>
The stackable net devices with hwtstamping support (vlan, macvlan,
bonding) only pass the hwtstamping ops to the lower (real) device.
These drivers are the first that need to be converted to the new
timestamping API, because if they aren't prepared to handle that,
then no real device driver cannot be converted to the new API either.
After studying what vlan_dev_ioctl(), macvlan_eth_ioctl() and
bond_eth_ioctl() have in common, here we propose two generic
implementations of ndo_hwtstamp_get() and ndo_hwtstamp_set() which
can be called by those 3 drivers, with "dev" being their lower device.
These helpers cover both cases, when the lower driver is converted to
the new API or unconverted.
We need some hacks in case of an unconverted driver, namely to stuff
some pointers in struct kernel_hwtstamp_config which shouldn't have
been there (since the new API isn't supposed to need it). These will
be removed when all drivers will have been converted to the new API.

Changes in v8:
- None
Changes in v7:
- Reword commit message
- Convert "int kernel_flags" to "bool copied_to_user"
- Minor style fixups, and a refactor of duplicated code into a common
generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()
Changes in v6:
- Patch title was updated. No code changes.
Changes in v5:
- kernel_hwtstamp_config kdoc is updated with the new field
descriptions.
Changes in V4:
- Introducing KERNEL_HWTSTAMP_FLAG_IFR_RESULT flag indicating that
the operation results are returned in the ifr referred by
struct kernel_hwtstamp_config instead of kernel_hwtstamp_config
glags/tx_type/rx_filter fields.
- Implementing generic_hwtstamp_set/set_lower() functions
which will be used by vlan, maxvlan, bond and potentially
other drivers translating ndo_hwtstamp_set/set calls to
lower level drivers.
