Nicolas Pitre d1cbfd771c ptp_clock: Allow for it to be optional
In order to break the hard dependency between the PTP clock subsystem and
ethernet drivers capable of being clock providers, this patch provides
simple PTP stub functions to allow linkage of those drivers into the
kernel even when the PTP subsystem is configured out. Drivers must be
ready to accept NULL from ptp_clock_register() in that case.

And to make it possible for PTP to be configured out, the select statement
in those driver's Kconfig menu entries is converted to the new "imply"
statement. This way the PTP subsystem may have Kconfig dependencies of
its own, such as POSIX_TIMERS, without having to make those ethernet
drivers unavailable if POSIX timers are cconfigured out. And when support
for POSIX timers is selected again then the default config option for PTP
clock support will automatically be adjusted accordingly.

The pch_gbe driver is a bit special as it relies on extra code in
drivers/ptp/ptp_pch.c. Therefore we let the make process descend into
drivers/ptp/ even if PTP_1588_CLOCK is unselected.

If you have a network (Ethernet) chipset belonging to this class,
say Y.
Note that the answer to this question does not directly affect
the kernel: saying N will just case the configurator to skip all
the questions about Samsung chipsets. If you say Y, you will be asked
for your specific chipset/driver in the following questions.
if NET_VENDOR_SAMSUNG
config SXGBE_ETH
tristate "Samsung 10G/2.5G/1G SXGBE Ethernet driver"
depends on HAS_IOMEM && HAS_DMA
select PHYLIB
select CRC32
imply PTP_1588_CLOCK
---help---
This is the driver for the SXGBE 10G Ethernet IP block found on
Samsung platforms.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called samsung-sxgbe.
