It sounds just as good to me.

Who should merge this patch?

Subject: [PATCH v2] ptp_clock: allow for it to be optional

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.

And to make it possible for PTP to be configured out, the select statement
in the Kconfig entry for those ethernet drivers is changed from selecting
PTP_1588_CLOCK to PTP_1588_CLOCK_SELECTED whose purpose is to indicate the
default Kconfig value for the PTP subsystem.

This way the PTP subsystem may have Kconfig dependencies of its own, such
as POSIX_TIMERS, without making those ethernet drivers unavailable if
POSIX timers are cconfigured out. And when support for POSIX timers is
selected again then PTP clock support will also be selected accordingly.

Drivers must be ready to accept NULL from ptp_clock_register().
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.
