    ethtool: Call ethtool's get/set_settings callbacks with cleaned data · 8ae6daca
    David Decotigny authored
    This makes sure that when a driver calls the ethtool's
    get/set_settings() callback of another driver, the data passed to it
    is clean. This guarantees that speed_hi will be zeroed correctly if
    the called callback doesn't explicitely set it: we are sure we don't
    get a corrupted speed from the underlying driver. We also take care of
    setting the cmd field appropriately (ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET).
    
    This applies to dev_ethtool_get_settings(), which now makes sure it
    sets up that ethtool command parameter correctly before passing it to
    drivers. This also means that whoever calls dev_ethtool_get_settings()
    does not have to clean the ethtool command parameter. This function
    also becomes an exported symbol instead of an inline.
    
    All drivers visible to make allyesconfig under x86_64 have been
    updated.
