This patch adds some clarification about the intended way to implement both SIOCSHWTSTAMP and ethtool's get_ts_info. The HWTSTAMP API has several Rx filters which are very specific, as well as more general filters. The specific filters really only exist to support some broken hardware which can't fully implement the generic filters. This patch adds clarification that it is okay to support the specific filters in SIOCSHWTSTAMP by upscaling them to the generic filters. In addition, update the header for ethtool_ts_info to specify that drivers ought to only report the filters they support without upscaling in this manner.
