> 82580 NICs have a hardware bug that makes it necessary to write into the TSICR (TimeSync Interrupt Cause) register to clear it:

>
> Add a conditional so only for 82580 we write into the TSICR register, so we don't risk losing events for other models.

> Without this change, when running ptp4l with an Intel 82580 card, I get the following output:

> This goes away with this change.
