Actually, it is worse than ugly. It is a disaster. With this change,
registration will succeed and MAC drivers will happily report the PTP
devices in 'ethtool -T', but there won't be anything behind them.
IMHO, it would be better in this case to stub out the whole
subsystem. That would save you ptp_clock.o, ptp_chardev.o, and
ptp_sysfs.o.
Thanks,
