      * Before this update, the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Operator wrongly parsed network interface controller (NIC) names. As a result, interface aliases were incorrectly formatted and this impacted identifying a PTP hardware clock (PHC) when using Mellaonox cards to send clock state events. With this release, the PTP now correctly parses the NIC names so that generated aliases align with Mellanox naming conventions. Mellanox cards can now accurately identify a PHC when sending clock state events. (link:https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-61581[OCPBUGS-61581])

      Description of problem:

          Cloud event proxy for PTP operator doesn't parse the BF3 NIC names correctly.
    When the event is published the interface alias name within the "ResourceAddress\": \"/   cluster/node/helix97.telcoqe.eng.rdu2.dc.redhat.com/enP2s2f1npx/master\" isn't formatted correctly.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

          ptp-operator.v4.20.0-202508041346

      How reproducible:

          100%

      Steps to Reproduce:

          1.Cause actions on PTP daemon that produce events with the interface alias.

      Actual results:

          'enP2s2f1npx'

      Expected results:

          'enP2s2fx'

      Additional info:

      "plugins/ptp_operator/utils/utils.go" GetAlias() func should be updated to handle more iface names, or at the very least BF3.
Here are two BF3 iface names for unit testing, which should have the same output of 'enP2s2fx': enP2s2f0np0, enP2s2f1np1
