Many embedded systems don't need the full POSIX timer support.
Configuring them out provides a nice kernel image size reduction.
When POSIX timers are configured out, the PTP clock subsystem should be
left out as well. However a bunch of ethernet drivers currently *select*
it in their Kconfig entries. Therefore some more tweaks were needed to
break that hard dependency for those drivers to still be configured in
if desired.
It was agreed that the best path upstream for those patches is via
John Stultz's timer tree.
