[PATCH net-next v2 3/3] net: reject a netdev that implements only one hwtstamp NDO

[Nicolai Buchwitz <nb@tipi-net.de>]

ndo_hwtstamp_get and ndo_hwtstamp_set only make sense as a pair. A
driver providing just one gets no complaint today, and the mismatch
turns up in user space, where a set can succeed while the matching get
fails.

Catch it at registration instead.
