This is very big change which is not only mix two separate changes, but also looks
half-done. From one side you're adding HW feature supported by limited number of HW,
from another - changing most of net drivers to support it by generating mix of legacy
and new kernel_ethtool_coalesce parameters.

There is also an issue - you do not account get/set_per_queue_coalesce() in any way.

Would it be possible to consider following, please?

- move extack change out of this series

- option (a)
   add new callbacks in ethtool_ops as set_coalesce_cqe/get_coalesce_cqe for CQE support.
   Only required drivers will need to be changed.

- option (b)
   add struct ethtool_coalesce as first field of kernel_ethtool_coalesce

struct kernel_ethtool_coalesce {
	/* legacy */
	struct ethtool_coalesce coal;

	/* new */
	u8 use_cqe_mode_tx;
	u8 use_cqe_mode_rx;
};

--  then b.1
   drivers can be updated as
    static int set_coalesce(struct net_device *dev,
    			    struct kernel_ethtool_coalesce *kernel_coal)
    {
	struct ethtool_coalesce *coal = &kernel_coal->coal;
    
    (which will clearly indicate migration to the new interface )

-- then b.2
     add new callbacks in ethtool_ops as set_coalesce_ext/get_coalesce_ext (extended)
     which will accept struct kernel_ethtool_coalesce as parameter an allow drivers to migrate when needed
     (or as separate patch which will do only migration).

Personally, I like "b.2".
