Public bug reported:
This bug is similar to #1832082 (bnx2x driver causes 100% CPU load) but
applies for qede driver instead of bnx2x. The symptoms are the same:
With chrony installed, and configured with "hwtimestamp *", I observe
100% CPU load on 2 CPU cores.
Running perf report shows that kernel is busy executing qede_ptp_task
function in qede driver.
A workaround is to disable "hwtimestamp *" in chrony configuration.
