RESEND, list still didn't receive my last version

The diffstat is slightly larger but IMO a slightly more readable version.
When I was reading v2 I found myself jumping around.

Hi Jon,

Thanks for the commit. But..

Here we need another check and goto software if !phy_has_tsinfo() and
no ops->get_ts_info. With this change we also have 2 goto and dev_put().

Ah yes. I cannot think of a way to make this simpler. The patch below looks good.

info->so_timestamping = SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE |
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE;

return 0;
}

As Jakub remind, dev_hold() and dev_put() can take NULL now. So how about
this new patch:
