CVE-2026-43173

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: ethernet: xscale: Check for PTP support properly

In ixp4xx_get_ts_info() ixp46x_ptp_find() is called
unconditionally despite this feature only existing on
ixp46x, leading to the following splat from tcpdump:

root@OpenWrt:~# tcpdump -vv -X -i eth0
(...)
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
  00000238 when read
(...)
Call trace:

Segmentation fault

Check for ixp46x in ixp46x_ptp_find() before trying to set up
PTP to avoid this.

To avoid altering the returned error code from ixp4xx_hwtstamp_set()
which before this patch was -EOPNOTSUPP, we return -EOPNOTSUPP
from ixp4xx_hwtstamp_set() if ixp46x_ptp_find() fails no matter
the error code. The helper function ixp46x_ptp_find() helper
returns -ENODEV.
