Jakub Kicinski 6dbf94b264 ethtool: clarify the ethtool FEC interface
The definition of the FEC driver interface is quite unclear.
Improve the documentation.

This is based on current driver and user space code, as well
as the discussions about the interface:

RFC v1 (24 Oct 2016): https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1477363849-36517-1-git-send-email-vidya@cumulusnetworks.com/
 - this version has the autoneg field
 - no active_fec field
 - none vs off confusion is already present

RFC v2 (10 Feb 2017): https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1486727004-11316-1-git-send-email-vidya@cumulusnetworks.com/
 - autoneg removed
 - active_fec added

v1 (10 Feb 2017): https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1486751311-42019-1-git-send-email-vidya@cumulusnetworks.com/
 - no changes in the code

v1 (24 Jun 2017):  https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1498331985-8525-1-git-send-email-roopa@cumulusnetworks.com/

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.

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.
