+ * TRX frame clock handling
+ *
+ * In a "normal" synchronous PHY layer, we would be polled every time
+ * the PHY needs data for a given frame number. However, the
+ * OpenBTS-inherited TRX protocol works differently: We (L1) must
+ * autonomously send burst data based on our own clock, and every so
+ * often (currently every ~ 216 frames), we get a clock indication from
+ * the TRX.
+ *
+ * We're using a MONOTONIC timerfd interval timer for the 4.615ms frame
+ * intervals, and then compute + send the 8 bursts for that frame.
+ *
+ * Upon receiving a clock indication from the TRX, we compensate
+ * accordingly: If we were transmitting too fast, we're delaying the
+ * next interval timer accordingly. If we were too slow, we immediately
+ * send burst data for the missing frame numbers.
