[PATCH v2] ptp: ocp: fix start time alignment in ptp_ocp_signal_set

From: Sagi Maimon
Date: Tue Apr 15 2025 - 01:31:47 EST


In ptp_ocp_signal_set, the start time for periodic signals is not
aligned to the next period boundary. The current code rounds up the
start time and divides by the period but fails to multiply back by
the period, causing misaligned signal starts. Fix this by multiplying
the rounded-up value by the period to ensure the start time is the
closest next period.

Fixes: 4bd46bb037f8e ("ptp: ocp: Use DIV64_U64_ROUND_UP for rounding.")

Changes since version 1:
- Simplified multiplication in expression by removing unnecessary parentheses
and using compound assignment operator, as suggested by the maintainer.
