Thanks.  I hope all the drivers still work, as you didn't leave long for
review.

There are a few drivers I didn't touch because they don't appear to keep
a soft copy of the timestamp configuration:

drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_main.c
drivers/net/ethernet/octeon/octeon_mgmt.c
drivers/net/ethernet/oki-semi/pch_gbe/pch_gbe_main.c
drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c

phylib and the dp83640 driver will also need to be updated to support
this.

Ben.
