* ChangeLog
** V3
   - Driver compiles even without CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK.
   - Timestamping always works, even when PTP code missing or fails.
** V2
   - Fixed wrong bit shifting in the 82576 code.
   - Explained the timestamp locking with a comment in the code.
   - Preserved the comments from the original timecompare
implementation.
   - Added an additional test within the overflow counter code to fix
     a race condition. Details of the problem are given in the commit
     message.

Thanks Richard, I will add this series to my queue.

Jeff,

Please hold off with these. I adapted the driver to use
timecounter/cyclecounter as Jacob suggested, and the result is surely
nicer. I will post a V4 after I finish testing it.

Thanks,
Richard
