Dear Kurt,
Thank you for your patch.

Retrieve Tx timestamp directly from interrupt handler.
The current implementation uses schedule_work() which is executed by the
system work queue to retrieve Tx timestamps. This increases latency and can
lead to timeouts in case of heavy system load.
Therefore, fetch the timestamp directly from the interrupt handler.
The work queue code stays for the Intel 82576. Tested on Intel i210.
Excuse my ignorance, I do not understand the first sentence in the last
line. Is it because the driver support different models? Why not change
it for Intel 82576 too?
Do you have a reproducer for the issue, so others can test.
