[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net v1] i40e: fix PTP pins verification

[Andrii Staikov]

Fix PTP pins verification not to contain tainted arguments.
As a new PTP pins configuration is provided by a user, it
may contain tainted arguments that are out of bounds for the
list of possible values that can lead to a potential security threat.
Change pin's state name from 'invalid' to 'empty' for more
clarification.

Fixes: 1050713026a0 ("i40e: add support for PTP external synchronization clock")
