ptp ptp0: delete virtual clock ptp15
============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected

--------------------------------------------
syz-executor421/5891 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(&ptp->n_vclocks_mux);
  lock(&ptp->n_vclocks_mux);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation
