Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 0/6] ethtool HW timestamping statistics

The goal of this patch series is to introduce a common set of ethtool statistics
for hardware timestamping that a driver implementer can hook into. The
statistics counters added are based on what I believe are common
patterns/behaviors found across various hardware timestamping implementations
seen in the kernel tree today. The mlx5 family of devices is used as the PoC for
this patch series. Other vendors are more than welcome to chim in on this
series.

Changes since v1:
        - Dropped the late statistics counter since that was not general enough
        - Dropped the layer selection attribute for timestamping statistics
        - Take Jakub's suggestion and converted to ETHTOOL_FLAG_STATS
        - Provided a working interface to query these new statistics from
          tools/net/ynl/ethtool.py
