Looks good.

Probably best to move this to the top of the file with the other timesync 
defines.


I wonder if this would also fix the following known issue with i210 timesyncing 
from the release notes:

http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/rel_notes/known_issues.html#ieee1588-support-possibly-not-working-with-an-intel-ethernet-controller-i210-nic

I don't have an i210 NIC to test but perhaps someone could verify it.
