G'day All,

The stmmac driver checks (priv->hwts_tx_en) && (priv->hwts_rx_en) before 
reporting WHTSTAMP capabilities.
No other driver seems to do this. hwts_*_en indicate if timestamping is 
enabled, not if the interface is capable of it.
Instead they check there capabilities. Which would be 
(priv->dma_cap.time_stamp || priv->dma_cap.atime_stamp)

Does this seem reasonable?

Yes true.

priv->hwts_*_en indicate if timestamping is enabled/disabled at run
time. But  priv->dma_cap.time_stamp  and priv->dma_cap.atime_stamp
indicates HW is support for PTPv1/PTPv2.

We should use  - (priv->dma_cap.time_stamp ||
priv->dma_cap.atime_stamp) in ethtool_ts_ops.
