I'll fix it.

That's right. Would set the ptp flag to 0 also be an option here (so
that we respect HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE at least in the driver)?

Because it depends on the "PTP" register bank (and the "PTP" interrupt)
being described and available. This is why I named the flag 'ptp', but
it could be named 'timestamp' or 'ts' as well.
