[Skiboot] [RFC PATCH] chiptod: properly zero TB SPR when cleaning up for invalid TB

The existing sequence writes TBU twice and leaves TBL unchanged. This
may not really matter if it's being resynced from the chiptod soon, but
it's possible it could clear a parity error.

I did not find the recovery recipe or reason to clear TBU twice in the
workbook. So it looks odd and the new sequence follows the ISA
requirement to zero the TB register, but maybe I overlook something. If
2x mfTBU is required then it should have a comment IMO.
