This is a nice addition to the testptp program. I do have a few
comments, below.

First off, the subject line should mention testptp. How about this?

    [PATCH] ptp: add the PTP_SYS_OFFSET ioctl to the testptp program

The help message should tell the user what 'val' is.

                                                    ^^^^
I think the output would look nicer with only one newline. After all,
each measurement is a {sys,phc,sys} triplet and not a {sys,phc} pair.
