> Implementation of more netlink request types:
> 
>   - netdev features (ethtool -k/-K, patches 3-6)
>   - private flags (--show-priv-flags / --set-priv-flags, patches 7-9)
>   - ring sizes (ethtool -g/-G, patches 10-12)
>   - channel counts (ethtool -l/-L, patches 13-15)
> 
> Patch 1 is a style cleanup suggested in part 2 review and patch 2 updates
> the mapping between netdev features and legacy ioctl requests (which are
> still used by ethtool for backward compatibility).
> 
> Changes in v2:
>   - fix netdev reference leaks in error path of ethnl_set_rings() and
>     ethnl_set_channels() (found by Jakub Kicinski)
>   - use __set_bit() rather than set_bit() (suggested by David Miller)
>   - in replies to RINGS_GET and CHANNELS_GET requests, omit ring and
>     channel types not supported by driver/device (suggested by Jakub
>     Kicinski)
>   - more descriptive message size calculations in rings_reply_size() and
>     channels_reply_size() (suggested by Jakub Kicinski)
>   - coding style cleanup (suggested by Jakub Kicinski)

Series applied, thanks Michal.
