Currently, userland has no methods to query which timestamping features are supported by the mcp251xfd driver (aside maybe of getting RX messages and obseverse whether or not hardware timestamps stay at zero). The canonical way for a network driver to advertise what kind of timestamping it supports is to implement ethtool_ops::get_ts_info(). Here, we use the CAN specific can_ethtool_op_get_ts_info_hwts() function to achieve this. In addition, the driver currently does not support the hardware timestamps ioctls. According to [1], SIOCSHWTSTAMP is "must" and SIOCGHWTSTAMP is "should". This patch fills up that gap by implementing net_device_ops::ndo_eth_ioctl() using the CAN specific function can_eth_ioctl_hwts().
