[PATCH RESEND v1 net] ptp: netc: explicitly clear TMR_OFF during initialization

[wei . fang]

From: Clark Wang <xiaoning.wang@xxxxxxx>

The NETC timer does not support function level reset, so TMR_OFF_L/H
registers are not cleared by pcie_flr(). If TMR_OFF was set to a
non-zero value in a previous binding, it will persist across driver
rebind and cause inaccurate PTP time.

There is also a hardware issue: after a warm reset or soft reset,
TMR_OFF_L/H registers appear to be cleared to zero, but the timer clock
domain internally retains the stale value. When the timer is re-enabled,
TMR_CUR_TIME continues to track the old offset until TMR_OFF is written
explicitly. This can cause incorrect PTP timestamps and even PTP clock
synchronization failures.

Per the recommendation from the IP team, explicitly write 0 to TMR_OFF
in netc_timer_init() to flush the internally cached value and ensure
TMR_CUR_TIME follows the freshly initialized counter.
