ntp: Introduce struct ntp_data[ Upstream commit 68f66f97c5689825012877f58df65964056d4b5d ] All NTP data is held in static variables. That prevents the NTP code from being reuasble for non-system time timekeepers, e.g. per PTP clock timekeeping. Introduce struct ntp_data and move tick_usec into it for a start. No functional change.

I sent a backport of this change, which is a one liner:
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/878qssr16f.ffs@tglx/
There is no point to backport the whole data struct change series for that.
Thanks,
