Subject: Re: ethtool patch to support bypass / fail-to-wire function

The driver using this is not upstream. You need to get that driver reviewed
and incorporated in upstream kernel before the changes to ethtool will be
considered.

I expect that the driver will not be accepted as is, and therefore you will
have to make changes (including API changes), that render this ethtool API
moot.
