net: stmmac: allow a tc-taprio base-time of zero
[ Upstream commit f64ab8e4f368f48afb08ae91928e103d17b235e9 ]
Commit fe28c53ed71d ("net: stmmac: fix taprio configuration when
base_time is in the past") allowed some base time values in the past,
but apparently not all, the base-time value of 0 (Jan 1st 1970) is still
explicitly denied by the driver.
Remove the bogus check.
Fixes: b60189e0392f ("net: stmmac: Integrate EST with TAPRIO scheduler API")
