The DP83640 has a fixed number of PTP pins, and its pin configuration
has the same lifetime as the per-bus clock. Allocating the configuration
separately adds an allocation failure path and requires a separate free.

Embed the pin configuration in struct dp83640_clock and point the PTP
clock information at the embedded array. This changes only the storage;
the pin functions remain configurable at runtime. It also allows all
per-bus clock storage to be managed as one allocation.
