[PATCH net-next 2/3] docs: networking: timestamping: add one more known issue

2020-07-17 Thread Vladimir Oltean
Document the fact that Ethernet PHY timestamping has a fundamentally flawed corner case (which in fact hits the majority of networking drivers): a PHY for which its host MAC driver doesn't forward the phy_mii_ioctl for timestamping is still going to be presented to user space as functional. Fixing
