ethtool.h: MDI setting support
This change modifies the core ethtool struct to allow a driver to support setting of MDI/MDI-X state for twisted pair wiring. This change uses a previously reserved u8 and should not change any binary compatibility of ethtool. Also as per Ben Hutchings' suggestion, the capabilities are stored in a separate byte so the driver can report if it supports changing settings. see thread: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2010/11/17/6289820/thread see ethtool patches titled: ethtool: allow setting MDI-X state Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> CC: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Tested-by: Aaron Brown aaron.f.brown@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
