Wireshark says that the MRP test packets cannot be decoded - and the reason for that is that there's a two-byte hole filled with garbage between the "transitions" and "timestamp" members. So Wireshark decodes the two garbage bytes and the top two bytes of the timestamp written by the kernel as the timestamp value (which thus fluctuates wildly), and interprets the lower two bytes of the timestamp as a new (type, length) pair, which is of course broken. Even though this makes the timestamp field in the struct unaligned, it actually makes it end up on a 32 bit boundary in the frame as mandated by the standard, since it is preceded by a two byte TLV header. The struct definitions live under include/uapi/, but they are not really part of any kernel<->userspace API/ABI, so fixing the definitions by adding the packed attribute should not cause any compatibility issues.
