net/mlx5: Implement PTM cross timestamping support
Expose Precision Time Measurement support through related PTP ioctl.
The performance of PTM on ConnectX-7 was evaluated using both real-time
(RTC) and free-running (FRC) clocks under traffic and no traffic
conditions. Tests with phc2sys measured the maximum offset values at a 50Hz
rate, with and without PTM.
Results:
1. No traffic
+-----+--------+--------+
| | No-PTM | PTM |
+-----+--------+--------+
| FRC | 125 ns | <29 ns |
+-----+--------+--------+
| RTC | 248 ns | <34 ns |
+-----+--------+--------+
2. With traffic
+-----+--------+--------+
| | No-PTM | PTM |
+-----+--------+--------+
| FRC | 254 ns | <40 ns |
+-----+--------+--------+
| RTC | 255 ns | <45 ns |
