Subject: [PATCH net v3 0/2][pull request] igc: Enhance the tx-usecs coalesce setting implementation

Muhammad Husaini Zulkifli says:

The current tx-usecs coalesce setting implementation in the driver code is
improved by this patch series. The implementation of the current driver
code may have previously been a copy of the legacy code i210.

Patch 1:
Allow the user to see the tx-usecs coalesce setting's current value when
using the ethtool command. The previous value was 0.

Patch 2:
Give the user the ability to modify the tx-usecs coalesce setting's value.
Previously, it was restricted to rx-usecs.

v3:
- Implement the helper function, as recommended by Brett Creeley.
- Fix typo in cover letter.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230801172742.3625719-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com/
- Refactor the code, as Simon suggested, to make it more readable.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230728170954.2445592-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com/
