Subject: [PATCH net-next] net-ethtool: Allow ethtool to set interface in loopback mode.

Add second word for feature (currently it's single word). Also use the first
bit of the second word to set the loopback mode. By configuring the interface
in loopback mode in conjunction with a policy route / rule, a user-land
application can stress the egress / ingress path exposing the flows of the
change in progress and potentially help developer(s) understand the impact of
those changes without even sending a packet out on the network.

Following set of commands illustrates one such example -
    a) ip -4 addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev eth1
    b) ip -4 rule add from all iif eth1 lookup 250
    c) ip -4 route add local 0/0 dev lo proto kernel scope host table 250
    d) arp -Ds 192.168.1.100 eth1
    e) arp -Ds 192.168.1.200 eth1
    f) sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1
    g) sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_local=1
    # Assuming that the machine has 8 cores
    h) taskset 000f netserver -L 192.168.1.200
    i) taskset 00f0 netperf -t TCP_CRR -L 192.168.1.100 -H 192.168.1.200 -l 30
