Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/1] net: validate HWTSTAMP ioctl parameters

Okay, here is a patch to check the ioctl.

I took the liberty to check both the Rx and Tx fields. I coded the
check rather pedantically, using a switch/case over the enumerated
values. The advantage of this style is that the compiler will warn
if someone adds a new enum into net_tstamp.h without fixing the
checking function in dev.c.
