Jakub Kicinski 4d2cbd620a selftests: netdevsim: fix SIGPIPE flake in ethtool-coalesce
The adaptive-rx and adaptive-tx checks use 'ethtool -c | grep -q' under
'set -o pipefail'. grep -q exits as soon as it finds a match, which can
happen before ethtool finishes writing its output. When that occurs,
ethtool receives SIGPIPE causing (uninformative):

 # selftests: drivers/net/netdevsim: ethtool-coalesce.sh
 # FAILED 1/22 checks
 not ok 1 selftests: drivers/net/netdevsim: ethtool-coalesce.sh # exit=1

This happens on debug kernels in NIPA, ~4% of the time.
