The ptp4l program already has a command line option to specify the PHC. Currently this is required to match the PHC associated with the network interface. A minor change is needed to allow a different clock. So why not simply use the '-p' option? Initially, before we had the ethtool interfaces, this was needed to specify the PHC, but today the option is useless. We can change the code to relax the restrictions on the passed character device node path.
