This is a mellanox card right?

mlx4_en_get_module_info() and mlx4_en_get_module_eeprom() implement
the old API for reading data from an SFP module. So the ethtool core
will be mapping the new API to the old API. The interesting function
is probably fallback_set_params():

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/net/ethtool/eeprom.c#L29

and my guess is, you are hitting:

	if (offset >= modinfo->eeprom_len)
		return -EINVAL;

offset is 3 * 128 + 128 = 512.

mlx4_en_get_module_info() is probably returning eeprom_len of 256?

Could you verify this?
