Subject: [ethtool PATCH 1/2] ethtool: fix manpage so that it will display
	tables again

The current ethtool manpage is not displaying tables.  After trying to pass
the manpage through tbl I repeatedly saw the error:
tbl:ethtool.8.in:707: unrecognised format `x'
tbl:ethtool.8.in:707: giving up on this table

By dropping the 'x' the errors went away and when I built the manpage the
tables reappeared so I am assuming this is the correct approach.
