Hi,

This is V3. You can find V2 as part of a larger series here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/d1dba3e1-2ecc-4fdf-a23b-7696c4bccf45@gmail.com/T/

This patchset by Rahul and Carolina adds PTM (Precision Time Measurement)
support to the mlx5 driver.

PTM is a PCI extended capability introduced by PCI-SIG for providing an
accurate read of the device clock offset without being impacted by
asymmetric bus transfer rates.

The performance of PTM on ConnectX-7 was evaluated using both real-time
(RTC) and free-running (FRC) clocks under traffic and no traffic
conditions. Tests with phc2sys measured the maximum offset values at a 50Hz
rate, with and without PTM. 

Results:

1. No traffic
+-----+--------+--------+
|     | No-PTM | PTM    |
+-----+--------+--------+
| FRC | 125 ns | <29 ns |
+-----+--------+--------+
| RTC | 248 ns | <34 ns |
+-----+--------+--------+

2. With traffic
+-----+--------+--------+
|     | No-PTM | PTM    |
+-----+--------+--------+
| FRC | 254 ns | <40 ns |
+-----+--------+--------+
| RTC | 255 ns | <45 ns |
+-----+--------+--------+

commit 1722389b0d86 ("Merge tag 'net-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net")

Thanks,
Tariq.

V3:
- Rebased on latest. As a result, had to replace the call to the recently
  removed function convert_art_ns_to_tsc().
- Added more CCs to the series per Jakub's feedback.
- Added perf numbers.
