The stmmac driver supports many vendors SoCs using Synopsys-licensed
Ethernet controller IP. Most of these vendors reuse the stmmac_platform
codebase, which has a potential PTP clock initialization issue.
The PTP clock rate reading might require ungating what is not provided.

Fix the PTP clock initialization by enabling it immediately.

For me it looks more conservative way to use first option = enclose
the clk_get_rate() with clk_prepare_enable() and clk_disable_unprepare()
as this don't change the PTP clock status for other glue drivers.
