In both cases, calls to PF PTP cleanup (ice_ptp_cleanup_pf\nfunction) and 'ps_lock' mutex deinitialization were missed.\nAdditionally, ptp clock was not unregistered in the latter case.\n\nKeep PTP state as 'uninitialized' on init to distinguish between error\nscenarios and to avoid resource release duplication at driver removal.\n\nThe consequence of missing ice_ptp_cleanup_pf call is the following call\ntrace dumped when ice_adapter object is freed (port list is not empty,\nas it is required at this stage):\n\n[  T93022] ------------[ cut here ]------------\n[  T93022] WARNING: CPU:
