Public bug reported:

Upstream has a patch from v4.2 to latest and this is missing in
v4.0-1ubuntu1 (in noble/ubuntu-24.04). This patch allows backward
compatibility between devices with PTP header versions 2.1 & 2.0.

ptp4l: Allow advertisement of legacy PTP 2.0 protocol
Some hardware can't properly timestamp packets with the new PTP
header version 2.1. This patch adds legacy_ptp_ver config option that
allows advertising of the legacy 2.0 protocol.

Additionally, forcing PTP minor version to be nonzero causes
interoperability issues with some legacy grandmasters.

v2: rebase on top, clarify compatibility issues
v3: fix subject line
v4: change argument to ptp_minor_version
