Subject: [PATCH net-next v5 13/16] net: Change the API of PHY default timestamp to MAC

From: Kory Maincent <kory.maincent@...tlin.com>

Change the API to select MAC default time stamping instead of the PHY.
Indeed the PHY is closer to the wire therefore theoretically it have less
delay than the MAC timestamping but the reality is different. Due to lower
time stamping clock frequency, latency in the MDIO bus and no PHC hardware
synchronization between different PHY, the PHY PTP is often less precise
than the MAC. The exception is for PHY designed specially for PTP case but
these board are not very widespread. For not breaking the compatibility I
introduce an allowlist to reference all current PHYs that support
time stamping and let them keep the old API behavior.

The phy_set_timestamp function is called at each call of phy_attach_direct.
In case of MAC driver using phylink this function is called when the
interface is turned up. Then if the interface goes down and up again the
last choice of timestamp will be overwritten by the default choice.
A solution could be to cache the timestamp status but it can bring other
issues. In case of SFP, if we change the module, it doesn't make sense to
blindly re-set the timestamp back to PHY, if the new module has a PHY with
mediocre timestamping capabilities.

Changes in v5:
- Extract the API change in this patch.
- Rename whitelist to allowlist.
- Set NETDEV_TIMESTAMPING in register_netdevice function.
- Add software timestamping case description in ts_info.
