Subject: [Bug] possible deadlock in ptp_clock_unregister

Dear developers and maintainers,

We encountered a deadlock in function ptp_clock_unregister(). We
reproduced this bug on the latest upstream kernel(Linux 6.9-rc1). C
repro and kernel config are attached to this email. The bug report is
listed below.
```

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

  lock(&ptp->n_vclocks_mux);
  lock(&ptp->n_vclocks_mux);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

According to the report, ptp_clock_unregister() in ptp_clock.c takes
the mutex which was taken before by n_vclocks_store  ptp_sysfs.c.
