ptp: Limit time setting of PTP clocks

Networking drivers implementing PTP clocks and kernel socket code
handling hardware timestamps use the 64-bit signed ktime_t type counting
nanoseconds. When a PTP clock reaches the maximum value in year 2262,
the timestamps returned to applications will overflow into year 1667.
The same thing happens when injecting a large offset with
clock_adjtime(ADJ_SETOFFSET).

The commit 7a8e61f84786 ("timekeeping: Force upper bound for setting
CLOCK_REALTIME") limited the maximum accepted value setting the system
clock to 30 years before the maximum representable value (i.e. year
2232) to avoid the overflow, assuming the system will not run for more
than 30 years.

Enforce the same limit for PTP clocks. Don't allow negative values and
values closer than 30 years to the maximum value. Drivers may implement
an even lower limit if the hardware registers cannot represent the whole
interval between years 1970 and 2262 in the required resolution.
