When accessing the timecounter register on an i.MX8MQ the kernel hangs. This is only the case when the interface is down. This can be reproduced by reading with 'phc_ctrl eth0 get'.
Like described in the change in 91c0d987a9788dcc5fe26baafd73bf9242b68900 the igp clock is disabled when the interface is down and leads to a system hang.
So we check if the ptp clock status before reading the timecounter register.

v3: I did a mistake and did not test properly - add parenteses - fix the used variable
