[PATCH net 12/13] net: stmmac: Stop overriding the PTP clock info static instance

It had been defined as constant before commit 9a8a02c9d46d ("net: stmmac:
Add Flexible PPS support"). But then it was converted to be just static,
which fields may get to be modified on each stmmac_ptp_register()
invocation. Since that method is called from the driver probe method, a
concurrent DW *MAC NIC initialization causes the race condition for the
updated stmmac_ptp_clock_ops fields. That also may lead to setting an
inappropriate max_adj value, which was specific for one device, was
written to the stmmac_ptp_clock_ops, but then copied to the private
ptp_clock_info instance unmodified.

So to speak let's leave the stmmac_ptp_clock_ops content untouched and
just copy it to the device-specific instance of the ptp_clock_info
structure, which fields could be then accordingly modified. After that we
can get the const qualifier back to the stmmac_ptp_clock_ops instance
definition.

While at it remove pointless zero-initialization of the
stmmac_ptp_clock_ops fields. It's redundant since the structure is static.

Fixes: 9a8a02c9d46d ("net: stmmac: Add Flexible PPS support")
Fixes: 190f73ab4c43 ("net: stmmac: setup higher frequency clk support for EHL & TGL")
Fixes: f4da56529da6 ("net: stmmac: Add support for external trigger timestamping")
