Hi Kory,

A few lines beyond this hunk, within the "if (hwtstamp)" block,
is the following:

		cfg->qualifier = dev->hwtstamp->qualifier;

Now that dev->hwtstamp is managed using RCU, I don't think it is correct
to dereference it directly like this. Rather, the hwtstamp local variable,
which has rcu_dereference'd this pointer should be used:

		 cfg->qualifier = hwtstamp->qualifier;

Perhaps it is not possible, but if the loop iterates zero times then
ret will be used uninitialised here.
