IOW, it is not linuxptp's choice to use these modes, but rather this
is caused by a limitation of your device.

Not necessarily.  If two frames that arrive at nearly the same time
get their timestamps mixed up, that would be enough to break the time
values but without breaking your state machine.

What do you mean by that?  Is the driver altering PTP message fields?

Thanks,
