Ben Hutchings 278bc4296b ethtool: Define and apply a default policy for RX flow hash indirection
All drivers that support modification of the RX flow hash indirection
table initialise it in the same way: RX rings are assigned to table
entries in rotation.  Make that default policy explicit by having them
call a ethtool_rxfh_indir_default() function.

In the ethtool core, add support for a zero size value for
ETHTOOL_SRXFHINDIR, which resets the table to this default.

Ben Hutchings 7850f63f16 ethtool: Centralise validation of ETHTOOL_{G, S}RXFHINDIR parameters
Add a new ethtool operation (get_rxfh_indir_size) to get the
indirectional table size.  Use this to validate the user buffer size
before calling get_rxfh_indir or set_rxfh_indir.  Use get_rxnfc to get
the number of RX rings, and validate the contents of the new
indirection table before calling set_rxfh_indir.  Remove this
validation from drivers.

Rick Jones 84b4050111 Sweep away N/A fw_version dustbunnies from the .get_drvinfo routine of a number of drivers
Per discussion with Ben Hutchings and David Miller, go through and
remove assignments of "N/A" to fw_version in various drivers'
.get_drvinfo routines.  While there clean-up some use of bare
constants and such.

Rick Jones 23020ab353 Sweep additional floors of strcpy in .get_drvinfo routines
Perform another round of floor sweeping, converting the .get_drvinfo
routines of additional drivers from strcpy to strlcpy along with
some conversion of sprintf to snprintf.

Ben Hutchings 815c7db5c8 ethtool: Clean up definitions of rule location arrays in RX NFC
Correct the description of ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs; it is an array
of currently used locations, not all possible valid locations.

Add note that drivers must not use ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs.

The rule_locs argument to ethtool_ops::get_rxnfc is either NULL or a
pointer to an array of u32, so change the parameter type accordingly.

Jiri Pirko 01789349ee net: introduce IFF_UNICAST_FLT private flag
Use IFF_UNICAST_FTL to find out if driver handles unicast address
filtering. In case it does not, promisc mode is entered.

Patch also fixes following drivers:
stmmac, niu: support uc filtering and yet it propagated
	ndo_set_multicast_list
bna, benet, pxa168_eth, ks8851, ks8851_mll, ksz884x : has set
	ndo_set_rx_mode but do not support uc filtering
