Yep, the symptomps were exactly the same, it didn't want to get
the DHCP answer, while I saw the DHCP requests on the host side.

But I don't know if disabling the timestamping fixes 8568, maybe
there is some additional problem with it, no idea as I don't have
8568 board in my hands any longer. I can try any proposed fixes
as soon as I get it back though.
