net: sparx5/lan969x: fix PTP clock max_adj value
[ Upstream commit a49d2a2 ]
The max_adj field in ptp_clock_info tells userspace how much the PHC
clock frequency can be adjusted. ptp4l reads this and will never request
a correction larger than max_adj.
On both sparx5 and lan969x the clock offset may never converge because
the servo needs a frequency correction larger than the current max_adj
of 200000 (200 ppm) allows. The servo rails at the max and the offset
stays in the tens of microseconds.
The hardware has no inherent max adjustment limit; frequency correction
is done by writing a 64-bit clock period increment to CLK_PER_CFG, and
the register has plenty of range. The 200000 value was just an overly
conservative software limit. The max_adj is shared between sparx5 and
lan969x, and the increased value is safe for both.
Fix this by increasing max_adj to 10000000 (10000 ppm), giving the
servo sufficient headroom.
