From: Maciek Machnikowski <redacted> The PHY on E825-C requires recalibration after large jumps of the system time. This step is required and is done for E822 devices previously, but was accidentally skipped due to oversight when E825-C support was added. Lack of recalibration will fail to converge quickly as the effective adjustment requested is not applied properly to the PHY timestamps, so the readings from the timestamp are incorrect. Without the fix:
