Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] ethtool mm API improvements

Currently the ethtool --set-mm API permits the existence of 2
configurations which don't make sense:

- pmac-enabled false tx-enabled true
- tx-enabled false verify-enabled true

By rejecting these, we can give driver-level code more guarantees.
I re-ran the MM selftest posted here (which I need to repost):
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230210221243.228932-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/

and it didn't cause functional problems.
