timekeeping: Fix aux clocks sysfs initialization loop bound

The loop in tk_aux_sysfs_init() uses `i <= MAX_AUX_CLOCKS` as the
termination condition, which results in 9 iterations (i=0 to 8) when
MAX_AUX_CLOCKS is defined as 8. However, the kernel is designed to support
only up to 8 auxiliary clocks.

This off-by-one error causes the creation of a 9th sysfs entry that exceeds
the intended auxiliary clock range.

Fix the loop bound to use `i < MAX_AUX_CLOCKS` to ensure exactly 8
auxiliary clock entries are created, matching the design specification.
