Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next v3 1/2] cxgb4: Add PTP Hardware Clock (PHC)
 support


Having the get-ts patch extra is fine, but still this one can and
should be broken down into 2 patches:

1. Transmit hardware SO_TIMESTAMPING
2. PHC support

Let me explain ...

This is Tx HW SO_TIMESTAMPING stuff ...

.. and this also.

But this is PHC stuff ...

... as is this.

I leave it to you to sort out the rest.

Logically SO_TIMESTAMPING and PHC are separate functionalities, and so
you should be able to separate them, one from the other.

As practical matter, it makes it *way* easier for me to review when the
series clearly divides these features into different patches.

Thanks,
Richard
