[PATCH v2 2/3] net/i40e: initialize PTP to system time

[Anatoly Burakov]

Currently, i40e driver initializes PTP timestamp to 0. This is different
from what kernel driver does (which initializes it to system time).

Align the DPDK driver to kernel driver by setting PTP timestamp to system
time when enabling PTP.

Note that i40e driver always uses zero-based timestamps for PTP, so we
would only ever update the internal timecounter and not the actual NIC
registers.
