i40e: fix i40e_ptp_adjtime when given a negative delta
Commit 0ac30ce4 ("i40e: fix up 32 bit timespec references", 2017-07-26) claims to be cleaning up references to 32-bit timespecs. The actual contents of the commit make no sense, as it converts a call to timespec64_add into timespec64_add_ns. This would seem ok, if (a) the change was documented in the commit message, and (b) timespec64_add_ns supported negative numbers. timespec64_add_ns doesn't work with signed deltas, because the implementation is based around iter_div_u64_rem. This change resulted in a regression where i40e_ptp_adjtime would interpret small negative adjustments as large positive additions, resulting in incorrect behavior. This commit doesn't appear to fix anything, is not well explained, and introduces a bug, so lets just revert it.
