commit a5a441ae283d54ec329aadc7426991dc32786d52 upstream.

Set use_nsecs=true as timestamp is reported in ns. Lack of this result
in smaller timestamp error window which cause error during phc2sys
execution on E825 NICs:
phc2sys[1768.256]: ioctl PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE: Invalid argument

This problem was introduced in the cited commit which omitted setting
use_nsecs to true when converting the ice driver to use
convert_base_to_cs().

Testing hints (ethX is PF netdev):
phc2sys -s ethX -c CLOCK_REALTIME  -O 37 -m
phc2sys[1769.256]: CLOCK_REALTIME phc offset -5 s0 freq      -0 delay    0

Hi Greg,

please consider this backport for linux-6.12.y

It fixes a regression from the series around
d4bea547ebb57 ("ice/ptp: Remove convert_art_to_tsc()")
which affected multiple drivers and occasionally
caused phc2sys to fail on ioctl(fd, PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE, ...).

This was the initial fix for ice but apparently tagging it
for stable was forgotten during submission.

The hunk was moved around slightly in the upstream commit 
92456e795ac6 ("ice: Add unified ice_capture_crosststamp")
from ice_ptp_get_syncdevicetime() into another helper function
ice_capture_crosststamp() so its indentation and context have changed.
I adapted it to apply cleanly.
