<content type='text'>
napi_complete_done() allows to opt-in for gro_flush_timeout,
added back in linux-3.19, commit 3b47d30396ba
("net: gro: add a per device gro flush timer")

This allows for more efficient GRO aggregation without
sacrifying latencies.

commit bc1f44709cf2 ("net: make ndo_get_stats64 a void function")
mistakenly used a return value for this void conversion.

Fix it.

<content type='text'>
The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
incorrectly assume that the return value was used.

Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.

<title>ktime: Cleanup ktime_set() usage</title>

ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still
useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value
needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this
is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

<content type='text'>
In order to break the hard dependency between the PTP clock subsystem and
ethernet drivers capable of being clock providers, this patch provides
simple PTP stub functions to allow linkage of those drivers into the
kernel even when the PTP subsystem is configured out. Drivers must be
ready to accept NULL from ptp_clock_register() in that case.

And to make it possible for PTP to be configured out, the select statement
in those driver's Kconfig menu entries is converted to the new "imply"
statement. This way the PTP subsystem may have Kconfig dependencies of
its own, such as POSIX_TIMERS, without having to make those ethernet
drivers unavailable if POSIX timers are cconfigured out. And when support
for POSIX timers is selected again then the default config option for PTP
clock support will automatically be adjusted accordingly.

The pch_gbe driver is a bit special as it relies on extra code in
drivers/ptp/ptp_pch.c. Therefore we let the make process descend into
drivers/ptp/ even if PTP_1588_CLOCK is unselected.

Pinned timers must carry the pinned attribute in the timer structure
itself, so convert the code to the new API.

No functional change.

The conversion to the 64-bit time based ptp methods left two instances
of 'struct timespec' in place. This is harmless because 64-bit
architectures define timespec64 as timespec, and this driver is
not used on 32-bit machines.

However, using 'struct timespec64' directly is obviously the right
thing to do, and will help us remove 'struct timespec' in the future.
