Subject: [PATCH net 0/3] net: ethtool: netdev_features_strings[] cleanup

This little series adds the last forgotten feature string for
NETIF_F_GSO_TUNNEL_REMCSUM and attempts to prevent such losses
in future.

Patches 2-3 seem more like net-next candidates rather than net-fixes,
but if we don't stop it now, no guarantees that it won't happen again
soon.

I was thinking about some kind of static assertion to have an early
prevention mechanism for this, but the existing of 2 intended holes
(former NO_CSUM and UFO) makes this problematic, at least at first
sight.

Alexander Lobakin (3):
  net: ethtool: add missing string for NETIF_F_GSO_TUNNEL_REMCSUM
  net: ethtool: fix indentation of netdev_features_strings
  net: ethtool: sync netdev_features_strings order with enum
    netdev_features
