> PTP is disabled
>
> From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.kel...@intel.com>
>
> The ice_ptp_extts_event() function can race with ice_ptp_release() and result 
> in a NULL pointer dereference which leads to a kernel panic.
>
> Panic occurs because the ice_ptp_extts_event() function calls
> ptp_clock_event() with a NULL pointer. The ice driver has already released 
> the PTP clock by the time the interrupt for the next external timestamp event 
> occurs.
>
> To fix this, modify the ice_ptp_extts_event() function to check the PTP state 
> and bail early if PTP is not ready.
