net: dsa: felix: re-enable TAS guard band mode
Commit 316bcffe ("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].
