[PATCH v2 2/2] phy: nxp-c45-tja11xx: read the tx timestamp without lock

[Radu Pirea (NXP OSS)]

Reading the tx timestamps can be done in parallel with adjusting the LTC
value.

Calls to nxp_c45_get_hwtxts() are always serialised. If the phy
interrupt is enabled, .do_aux_work() will not call nxp_c45_get_hwtxts.
