For applications running on a mix of platforms it's useful
to have a clear indication whether host's NIC supports the
geometry requirements of TCP zero-copy. TCP zero-copy Rx
requires data to be neatly placed into memory pages.
Most NICs can't do that.
This patch is adding GET support only, since the NICs
I work with either always have the feature enabled or
enable it whenever MTU is set to jumbo. In other words
I don't need SET. But adding set should be trivial.
(The only note on SET is that we will likely want
the setting to be "sticky" and use 0 / `unknown`
to reset it back to driver default.)

It seems I missed that most ethnl_parse_header_dev_get() callers
declare an on-stack struct ethnl_req_info, and that they simply call
dev_put(req_info.dev) when about to return.
Add ethnl_parse_header_dev_put() helper to properly untrack
reference taken by ethnl_parse_header_dev_get().

To get the most out of parsing by the core, and to allow dumping
full policies we need to specify which policy applies to nested
attrs. For headers it's ethnl_header_policy.
$ sed -i 's@\(ETHTOOL_A_.*HEADER\].*=\) { .type = NLA_NESTED },@\1\n\t\tNLA_POLICY_NESTED(ethnl_header_policy),@' net/ethtool/*

Since ethtool uses strict attribute validation there's no need
to initialize all attributes in policy tables. 0 is NLA_UNSPEC
which is going to be rejected. Remove the NLA_REJECTs.
Similarly attributes above maxattrs are rejected, so there's
no need to always size the policy tables to ETHTOOL_A_..._MAX.
v2: - new patch

Wire up policies for get commands in struct nla_policy of the ethtool
family. Make use of genetlink code attr validation and parsing, as well
as allow dumping policies to user space.
For every ETHTOOL_MSG_*_GET:
- add 'ethnl_' prefix to policy name
- add extern declaration in net/ethtool/netlink.h
- wire up the policy & attr in ethtool_genl_ops[].
- remove .request_policy and .max_attr from ethnl_request_ops.
Obviously core only records the first "layer" of parsed attrs
so we still need to parse the sub-attrs of the nested header
attribute.
v2:
- merge of patches 1 and 2 from v1
- remove stray empty lines in ops
- also remove .max_attr

Implement RINGS_SET netlink request to set ring sizes of a network device.
These are traditionally set with ETHTOOL_SRINGPARAM ioctl request.
Like the ioctl implementation, the generic ethtool code checks if supplied
values do not exceed driver defined limits; if they do, first offending
attribute is reported using extack.

Implement RINGS_GET request to get ring sizes of a network device. These
are traditionally available via ETHTOOL_GRINGPARAM ioctl request.
Omit attributes for ring types which are not supported by driver or device
(zero reported for maximum).
v2: (all suggested by Jakub Kicinski)
- minor cleanup in rings_prepare_data()
- more descriptive rings_reply_size()
- omit attributes with zero max size
