This will cause Sparse endianess warnings.

I don't totally understand why we're writing to *ns.  Do we access *ns
again or not?  Either way, this doesn't seem right.  In other words, why
don't we do this:

		__le64 *period = dpaa2_get_ts(vaddr, false);
		u64 ns;

		ns = DPAA2_PTP_NOMINAL_FREQ_PERIOD_NS * le64_to_cpup(period);
		memset(shhwtstamps, 0, sizeof(*shhwtstamps));
		shhwtstamps->hwtstamp = ns_to_ktime(ns);

Then if we need to save a munged *ns then we can do this at the end:

		/* we need this because blah blah blah */
		*period = (__le64)ns;

Sparse issues here also.

Is this really related?  (I have not looked at this code).

These variable names are not great.  I wouldn't have understood "ts_"
without the comment.  "tx_" is good.  "en" is confusing until you read
the comment.  But really it should just be left out because "enable" is
assumed, generally.  Last week I asked someone to rewrite a patch that
had a _disable variable because negative variables lead to double
negatives which screw with my tiny head.

	if (blah_disable != 0) {

OH MY BLASTED WORD MY BRIAN ESPLODED!!!1!

So let's just name these "tx_timestamps" or something.
