I did some testing on a Marvell Topaz switch (mv88e6341). The Boundary
Clock over UDPv4/UDPv6 using Vladimir's netfilter rules doesn't
work. Even though I've successfully tested these rules on TI CPSW
(switchdev variant) and hellcreek.

However, BC over Layer 2 transport is also not really working well, as
the switch forwards PTP packets (instead of trapping?). Furthermore,
ptp4l reports loosing of timestamps when running on multiple switch
ports.

Tested with Linux v5.16.

Thanks,
Kurt
