Subject: [PATCHv2 ethtool 3/3] rxclass: Allow driver to select RX NFC rule
 location

If the user does not specify a location for an RX NFC rule to be added
and the result of the ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLCNT command indicates that the
driver supports special rule locations, let the driver select the
location.
