For packets with two-step timestamp requests, the hardware timestamp
comes back to the driver through a confirmation mechanism of sorts,
which allows the driver to confidently bump the successful "pkts"
counter.
For one-step PTP, the NIC is supposed to autonomously insert its
hardware TX timestamp in the packet headers while simultaneously
transmitting it. There may be a confirmation that this was done
successfully, or there may not.
None of the current drivers which implement ethtool_ops :: get_ts_stats()
also support HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC or HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC, so it
is a bit unclear which model to follow. But there are NICs, such as DSA,
where there is no transmit confirmation at all. Here, it would be wrong /
misleading to increment the successful "pkts" counter, because one-step
PTP packets can be dropped on TX just like any other packets.
So introduce a special counter which signifies "yes, an attempt was made,
but we don't know whether it also exited the port or not". I expect that
for one-step PTP packets where a confirmation is available, the "pkts"
counter would be bumped.

The hds-thresh option configures the threshold value of
the header-data-split.
If a received packet size is larger than this threshold value, a packet
will be split into header and payload.
The header indicates TCP and UDP header, but it depends on driver spec.
The bnxt_en driver supports HDS(Header-Data-Split) configuration at
FW level, affecting TCP and UDP too.
So, If hds-thresh is set, it affects UDP and TCP packets.
Example:
# ethtool -G <interface name> hds-thresh <value>
# ethtool -G enp14s0f0np0 tcp-data-split on hds-thresh 256
# ethtool -g enp14s0f0np0
Ring parameters for enp14s0f0np0:
Pre-set maximums:
...
HDS thresh: 1023
Current hardware settings:
...
TCP data split: on
HDS thresh: 256
The default/min/max values are not defined in the ethtool so the drivers
should define themself.
The 0 value means that all TCP/UDP packets' header and payload
will be split.

Introduce support for ETHTOOL_MSG_TSCONFIG_GET/SET ethtool netlink socket
to read and configure hwtstamp configuration of a PHC provider. Note that
simultaneous hwtstamp isn't supported; configuring a new one disables the
previous setting.

Either the MAC or the PHY can provide hwtstamp, so we should be able to
read the tsinfo for any hwtstamp provider.
Enhance 'get' command to retrieve tsinfo of hwtstamp providers within a
network topology.
Add support for a specific dump command to retrieve all hwtstamp
providers within the network topology, with added functionality for
filtered dump to target a single interface.

No functional changes. Mostly the following formatting:
- extra docs
- extra enums
- XXX_MAX = __XXX_CNT - 1 -> XXX_MAX = (__XXX_CNT - 1)
- newlines

Cleanup the header manually to make it easier to review the changes that ynl
generator brings in. No functional changes.

Reshuffle definitions that are gonna be generated into
ethtool_netlink_generated.h and match ynl spec order.
This should make it easier to compare the output of the ynl-gen-c
to the existing uapi header. No functional changes.
Things that are still remaining to be manually defined:
- ETHTOOL_FLAG_ALL - probably no good way to add to spec?
- some of the cable test bits (not sure whether it's possible to move to
spec)
- some of the stats definitions (no way currently to move to spec)
