Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next] ptp: dynamic allocation of PHC char devices

As network adapters supporting PTP are becoming more common, machines with
many NICs suddenly have many PHCs, too. The current limit of eight /dev/ptp*
char devices (and thus, 8 network interfaces with PHC) is insufficient. Let
the ptp driver allocate the char devices dynamically.

idr is used for tracking minor numbers allocation; the mapping from index to
pointer is not used, as it is not needed for posix clocks.

Tested with 28 PHCs, removing and re-adding some of them.

Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@...hat.com>
---
v2: Removed dynamic allocation of chunks of minor numbers, the full minor
    range is allocated instead.
