ptp vclocks require a free running time for their timecounter.
Currently only a physical clock forced to free running is supported.
If vclocks are used, then the physical clock cannot be synchronized
anymore. The synchronized time is not available in hardware in this
case. As a result, timed transmission with TAPRIO hardware support
is not possible anymore.
If hardware would support a free running time additionally to the
physical clock, then the physical clock does not need to be forced to
free running. Thus, the physical clocks can still be synchronized
while vclocks are in use.
The physical clock could be used to synchronize the time domain of the
TSN network and trigger TAPRIO. In parallel vclocks can be used to
synchronize other time domains.
Introduce support for a free running cycle counter called cycles to
physical clocks. Rework ptp vclocks to use this free running cycle
counter. Default implementation is based on time of physical clock.
Thus, behavior of ptp vclocks based on physical clocks without free
running cycle counter is identical to previous behavior.

Fixes possible leak of PTP virtual clocks.
The number of PTP virtual clocks to be unregistered is passed as
'u32', but the function that unregister the devices handles that as
'u8'.

Support ptp physical/virtual clocks conversion via sysfs.
There will be a new attribute n_vclocks under ptp physical
clock sysfs.
- In default, the value is 0 meaning only ptp physical clock
is in use.
- Setting the value can create corresponding number of ptp
virtual clocks to use. But current physical clock is guaranteed
to stay free running.
- Setting the value back to 0 can delete virtual clocks and back
use physical clock again.
Another new attribute max_vclocks control the maximum number of
ptp vclocks.

Let's switch to using device_create_with_groups(), which will allow us to
create "pins" attribute group together with the rest of ptp device
attributes, and before userspace gets notified about ptp device creation.

Instead of creating selected attributes after the device is created (and
after userspace potentially seen uevent), lets use attribute group
is_visible() method to control which attributes are shown. This will allow
us to create all attributes (except "pins" group, which will be taken care
of later) before userspace gets notified about new ptp class device.

Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO for read only attributes. This simplifies the
source code, improves readbility, and reduces the chance of

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

This patch adds an infrastructure for hardware clocks that implement
IEEE 1588, the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). A class driver offers a
registration method to particular hardware clock drivers. Each clock is
presented as a standard POSIX clock.
The ancillary clock features are exposed in two different ways, via
the sysfs and by a character device.
