FYI, here is a test that may show the improved behavior when comparing
before/after.

1. Start ptp4l, let it run long enough to find the frequency offset.

2. Stop ptp4l with ^C.

3. Wait a bit, to let the clock drift away.

4. Restart ptp4l, it will now start with the frequency offset learned
   in step 1.

5. Notice the the offsets in states s0 -> s1 -> s2.
   There will likely be less offset error with the patches applied.

Thanks,
Richard
