The reason why I suggested the name "hwtstamp_config_from_kernel()" was
to not break apart "hwtstamp" and "config", which together form the name
of one structure (hwtstamp_config).

Should we zero-initialize kernel_cfg (" = {}"), in case the driver does
not bother to populate, say, "flags"?

Cosmetic blank line here

and here?

(and in equivalent positions in dev_get_hwtstamp())
