net: Add a layer for non-PHY MII time stamping drivers. While PHY time stamping drivers can simply attach their interface directly to the PHY instance, stand alone drivers require support in order to manage their services. Non-PHY MII time stamping drivers have a control interface over another bus like I2C, SPI, UART, or via a memory mapped peripheral. The controller device will be associated with one or more time stamping channels, each of which sits snoops in on a MII bus. This patch provides a glue layer that will enable time stamping channels to find their controlling device.

net: Introduce a new MII time stamping interface. Currently the stack supports time stamping in PHY devices. However, there are newer, non-PHY devices that can snoop an MII bus and provide time stamps. In order to support such devices, this patch introduces a new interface to be used by both PHY and non-PHY devices. In addition, the one and only user of the old PHY time stamping API is converted to the new interface.
