Some of the newer silicon versions in CN10K series supports a feature where in the current PTP timestamp in HW can be updated atomically without losing any cpu cycles unlike read/modify/write register. This patch uses this feature so that PTP accuracy can be improved while adjusting the master offset in HW. There is no need for SW timecounter when using this feature. So removed references to SW timecounter wherever appropriate.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
