Maciej Żenczykowski 474ff26008 net-ethtool: ETHTOOL_GUFO did not and should not require CAP_NET_ADMIN
So it should not fail with EPERM even though it is no longer implemented...

This is a fix for:
  (userns)$ egrep ^Cap /proc/self/status
  CapInh: 0000003fffffffff
  CapPrm: 0000003fffffffff
  CapEff: 0000003fffffffff
  CapBnd: 0000003fffffffff
  CapAmb: 0000003fffffffff

  (userns)$ tcpdump -i usb_rndis0
  tcpdump: WARNING: usb_rndis0: SIOCETHTOOL(ETHTOOL_GUFO) ioctl failed: Operation not permitted
  Warning: Kernel filter failed: Bad file descriptor
  tcpdump: can't remove kernel filter: Bad file descriptor

With this change it returns EOPNOTSUPP instead of EPERM.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
