[PATCH v7 net-next 07/10] net: fec: delete fec_ptp_disable_hwts()

From: Vladimir Oltean
Date: Thu Jul 13 2023 - 08:20:27 EST


Commit 340746398b67 ("net: fec: fix hardware time stamping by external
devices") was overly cautious with calling fec_ptp_disable_hwts() when
cmd == SIOCSHWTSTAMP and use_fec_hwts == false, because use_fec_hwts is
based on a runtime invariant (phy_has_hwtstamp()). Thus, if use_fec_hwts
is false, then fep->hwts_tx_en and fep->hwts_rx_en cannot be changed at
runtime; their values depend on the initial memory allocation, which
already sets them to zeroes.

If the core will ever gain support for switching timestamping layers,
it will arrange for a more organized calling convention and disable
timestamping in the previous layer as a first step. This means that the
code in the FEC driver is not necessary in any case.

The purpose of this change is to arrange the phy_has_hwtstamp() code in
a way in which it can be refactored away into generic logic.
