ixgbe: fix timestamp configuration code
The commit in fixes introduced flags to control the status of hardware configuration while processing packets. At the same time another structure is used to provide configuration of timestamper to user-space applications. The way it was coded makes this structures go out of sync easily. The repro is easy for 82599 chips: [root@hostname ~]# hwstamp_ctl -i eth0 -r 12 -t 1 current settings: tx_type 0 rx_filter 0 new settings: tx_type 1 rx_filter 12 The eth0 device is properly configured to timestamp any PTPv2 events. [root@hostname ~]# hwstamp_ctl -i eth0 -r 1 -t 1 current settings: tx_type 1 rx_filter 12 SIOCSHWTSTAMP failed: Numerical result out of range The requested time stamping mode is not supported by the hardware. The error is properly returned because HW doesn't support all packets timestamping. But the adapter->flags is cleared of timestamp flags even though no HW configuration was done. From that point no RX timestamps are received by user-space application. But configuration shows good values: [root@hostname ~]# hwstamp_ctl -i eth0 current settings: tx_type 1 rx_filter 12 Fix the issue by applying new flags only when the HW was actually configured.
