It looks like it is not possible to let the hardware indicate only either
RX or TX, it will always have to go together.

Please express this in this function accordingly, so fallback to
software-driven trigger works as expected.

Example:
if (!(rules & BIT(TRIGGER_NETDEV_RX)) ^ !(rules & BIT(TRIGGER_NETDEV_TX)))
	return -EOPNOTSUPP;
