[ Upstream commit 8670dc33f48bab4d7bb4b8d0232f17f4dae419ec ] When adjusting the PTP clock, the base time of the TAS configuration will become unreliable. We need reset the TAS configuration by using a new base time. For example, if the driver gets a base time 0 of Qbv configuration from user, and current time is 20000. The driver will set the TAS base time to be 20000. After the PTP clock adjustment, the current time becomes 10000. If the TAS base time is still 20000, it will be a future time, and TAS entry list will stop running. Another example, if the current time becomes to be 10000000 after PTP clock adjust, a large time offset can cause the hardware to hang. This patch introduces a tas_clock_adjust() function to reset the TAS module by using a new base time after the PTP clock adjustment. This can avoid issues above. Due to PTP clock adjustment can occur at any time, it may conflict with the TAS configuration. We introduce a new TAS lock to serialize the access to the TAS registers.

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.
