Series net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Improve PTP access latency | expand

Commit Message

Andrew Lunn Feb. 15, 2018, 1:38 p.m. UTC
The PTP code needs low latency access to the PTP hardware timestamps.
Reading all the statistics in one go adds a lot of latency to the PTP
code. So take and release the reg_lock mutex for each individual
statistics, allowing the PTP thread jump in between.
