Subject: [PATCH net-next v1] net: microchip: lan743x: Reduce PTP timeout on HW failure

The PTP_CMD_CTL is a self clearing register which controls the PTP clock
values. In the current implementation driver waits for a duration of 20
sec in case of HW failure to clear the PTP_CMD_CTL register bit. This
timeout of 20 sec is very long to recognize a HW failure, as it is
typically cleared in one clock(<16ns). Hence reducing the timeout to 1 sec
would be sufficient to conclude if there is any HW failure observed. The
usleep_range will sleep somewhere between 1 msec to 20 msec for each
iteration. By setting the PTP_CMD_CTL_TIMEOUT_CNT to 50 the max timeout
is extended to 1 sec.
