I reverted, you did not ever build test this:

drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atlx/atl2.c: In function ‘atl2_probe’:
drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atlx/atl2.c:1398:2: error: ‘atl2_ethtool_ops’ undeclared (first use in this function)
drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atlx/atl2.c:1398:2: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
make[1]: *** [drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atlx/atl2.o] Error 1
make: *** [drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atlx/atl2.o] Error 2

If you do not even have the time to do a test build, then I do not
have the time to review and apply your patches.
