Hi Vladimir,
Thanks for the review comment.

The interrupts are added in the following patches in the series. During
the deferred packet timestamping, partial timestamps are reconstructed
to absolute time using the ptp_data->clock_time in the bottom halves.
So we need this spin_lock_bh.

I will use ksz_ptp_gettime directly.

Yes, this function is called before PTP clock registeration. I will
remove the spin_lock for here.
