Amit Cohen 22d950b79e mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Initialize the clock to zero as part of initialization
As lately recommended in the mailing list[1], set the clock to zero time as
part of initialization.

The idea is that when the clock reads 'Jan 1, 1970', then it is clearly
wrong and user will not mistakenly think that the clock is set correctly.
If as part of initialization, the driver sets the clock, user might see
correct date and time (maybe with a small shift) and assume that there
is no need to sync the clock.

Fix the existing code of Spectrum-1 to set the 'timecounter' to zero.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
