I suppose the idea here is that for something like mvpp2, which when we
have PTP support for Marvell PHYs in general will want to prefer to use
the MAC-based PTP rather than PHY-based, that driver needs to set
IFF_SEE_ALL_HWTSTAMP_REQUESTS so that the ndo timestamp ops always get
called? I didn't see this discussed in the commit message for this
patch.

Thanks.
