Hello:

This patch was applied to netdev/net.git (main)
by Jakub Kicinski [off-list ref]:

Removing the legacy ioctl fallback made both hwtstamp NDOs mandatory. A
device that only timestamps in its PHY implements neither, so
SIOCSHWTSTAMP fails with EOPNOTSUPP before anything looks at the PHY and
PTP stops working there.

The check only ever picked the legacy path. That path is gone, so drop it
and test where the NDOs are actually called.
