[PATCH net 15/15] ice: Recalibrate PHY after settime64 on E825-C

From: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>

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:
