Add timestamping information as provided by ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO ioctl command in GET_INFO reply if ETH_INFO_IM_TSINFO flag is set in the request. Add constants for counts of HWTSTAMP_TX_* and HWTSTAM_FILTER_* constants and provide symbolic names for timestamping related values so that they can be retrieved in GET_STRSET and GET_INFO requests.
What's the reason for providing the symbolic names?
