I know these patches are already acked by a couple of people in v4, but
I have a few more minor concerns that I'd like you to consider listed
below. Up to DaveM whether he wants to apply without the fixes I
mention.

Generally what I'd like to see is that you have a comment here in
kernel doc format, I suppose your driver probably doesn't have any of
these, but it is particularly important to describe what each function
is meant to do especially when it is a symbol callable from other
files/modules. Something like:

/**
 * cgx_lmac_ptp_config - enable or disable timestamping
 * @cgxd: driver context
 * @lmac_id: ID used to get register offset
 * @enable: true if timestamping should be enabled, false if not
 *
 * Here would be a multi-line description of what this function does
 * and if it has a return value, what it's for.
 */

I'm not super excited by the magic numbers here, without even a
comment, you should make a define for bit 32, and not leave me guessing
if this is the "enable" bit or is for something else.

Is this and the function above exactly the same 20+ lines of code
with a one line difference? Before you passed an "enable" bool to
another function, why the difference here?

Please don't use trailing comments *ever* in a code section, the only
place it is marginally ok, is in structure definitions.

Also, What's up with the magic number? At least you had a comment.
