Michael Walle 297c4de6f7 net: dsa: felix: re-enable TAS guard band mode
Commit 316bcffe44 ("net: dsa: felix: disable always guard band bit for
TAS config") disabled the guard band and broke 802.3Qbv compliance.

There are two issues here:
 (1) Without the guard band the end of the scheduling window could be
     overrun by a frame in transit.
 (2) Frames that don't fit into a configured window will still be sent.

The reason for both issues is that the switch will schedule the _start_
of a frame transmission inside the predefined window without taking the
length of the frame into account. Thus, we'll need the guard band which
will close the gate early, so that a complete frame can still be sent.
Revert the commit and add a note.

For a lengthy discussion see [1].

README

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.
