After having a closer look in the drivers change, it seems to be restricted to
the PTP functions of the Intel drivers.
So you can ask to the Intel validation team if they are OK to add it in RC2.
I think it would be a wrong idea because we need to stop moving the ethdev and
drivers code, and focus on other DPDK areas for the RC2.

Do you think we can make it clear in the definition of these functions?

More wording comments:
- rte_eth_timesync_time_get
- rte_eth_timesync_read_rx_timestamp
Why is it "get" in a case and "read" in another?
Why the verb is at the end in the first and before the complement in the latter?
