The current implementation of ptp4l always assumes 6 octets MAC
address, which is correct for Ethernet interfaces but not for IPoIB
interfaces (that have 20 octets MAC), therefore running ptp4l over
IPoIB interface does not function correctly.

In Infiniband, every interface has three identifiers:
GUID, GID, and LID.
The GUID is similar in concept to a MAC address. From RFC4392:
The EUI-64 portion of a GID is referred to as the Global Unique
Identifier (GUID) and is the only persistent identifier of a port.

Therefore, to support IPoIB interfaces, the GUID of the port should
be used instead of the MAC.
This patch checks the interface type before creating the clock identity,
for Infiniband ports, it retrieves the GUID of the port using sysfs
and use it to create the clock identity.

sysfs method was chosen since the GUID is the 6 lsb bytes of
the 20 byte device address, and SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl call returns
the 14 msb bytes of the device address, so it is not possible to
get the GUID using SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl call.
