[PATCH iwl-next v3] i40e: PTP: set supported flags in ptp_clock_info

[PATCH iwl-next v3] i40e: PTP: set supported flags in ptp_clock_info

[Przemyslaw Korba]

Since upstream commit d9f3e9ecc456 ("net: ptp: introduce
.supported_perout_flags to ptp_clock_info") and commit 7c571ac57d9d ("net:
ptp: introduce .supported_extts_flags to ptp_clock_info"), kernel core now
requires that the driver set the .supported_perout_flags and
.supported_extts_flags fields in PTP clock info. Otherwise, the additional
flags will be rejected by the kernel automatically.

Set supported flags field so we can set extts pins.

I don't think it is particularly important, but the AI generated review
points out that citing the following commit may be more appropriate,
as this patch deals with extts_flags rather than perout_flags.

7c571ac57d9d ("net: ptp: introduce .supported_extts_flags to ptp_clock_info")

Also, as this is for iwl-next I do wonder if there should be a fixes tag
at all. I do see that Paul asked for one in v1. But is this fixing a bug?
And if so, should it be targeted at iwl-net?

Thanks for the update.

FTR, the AI generated review also notes that the TODO covers both EXTTS and
PEROUT, while the patch only deals with the later. But I agree with Dawid's
review of v1. And that it is best to remove the TODO entirely.
