Sounds good. I have a few comments, below...

This memset not needed, AFAICT. Oh wait, you want to keep drivers
from seeing stack data in the unused parts of the union. That is
fine, but please just do that unconditionally at the top of the
function.

Since the code is mostly the same as in the PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST case,
maybe just double up the case statements (like in the other) and add
an extra test for (cmd == PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST2) for this if-block.

Also this could share code with the legacy ioctl.

Clearing 'req' unconditionally will make this case the same as the
legacy case.

This memset is pointless because of the following copy_from_user().

Again maybe share the code?

memset not needed here either.

also shareable.

Thanks,
