[PATCH net v3 1/1] net: fec: fix the PTP periodic output sysfs interface

[Buday Csaba]

When the PPS channel configuration was implemented, the channel
index for the periodic outputs was configured as the hardware
channel number.

The sysfs interface uses a logical channel index, and rejects numbers
greater than `n_per_out` (see period_store() in ptp_sysfs.c).
That property was left at 1, since the driver implements channel
selection, not simultaneous operation of multiple PTP hardware timer
channels.

A second check in fec_ptp_enable() returns -EOPNOTSUPP when the two
channel numbers disagree, making channels 1..3 unusable from sysfs.

Fix by removing this redundant check in the FEC PTP driver.
