In the blamed commit, a rudimentary reallocation procedure for RX buffer
descriptors was implemented, for the situation when their format changes
between normal (no PTP) and extended (PTP).
enetc_hwtstamp_set() calls enetc_close() and enetc_open() in a sequence,
and this sequence loses information which was previously configured in
the TX BDR Mode Register, specifically via the enetc_set_bdr_prio() call.
The TX ring priority is configured by tc-mqprio and tc-taprio, and
affects important things for TSN such as the TX time of packets. The
issue manifests itself most visibly by the fact that isochron --txtime
reports premature packet transmissions when PTP is first enabled on an
enetc interface.
Save the TX ring priority in a new field in struct enetc_bdr (occupies a
2 byte hole on arm64) in order to make this survive a ring reconfiguration.
Fixes: 434cebabd3 ("enetc: Add dynamic allocation of extended Rx BD rings")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
