Danielle Ratson a975d7d8a3 ethtool: Remove link_mode param and derive link params from driver
Some drivers clear the 'ethtool_link_ksettings' struct in their
get_link_ksettings() callback, before populating it with actual values.
Such drivers will set the new 'link_mode' field to zero, resulting in
user space receiving wrong link mode information given that zero is a
valid value for the field.

Another problem is that some drivers (notably tun) can report random
values in the 'link_mode' field. This can result in a general protection
fault when the field is used as an index to the 'link_mode_params' array
[1].

This happens because such drivers implement their set_link_ksettings()
callback by simply overwriting their private copy of
'ethtool_link_ksettings' struct with the one they get from the stack,
which is not always properly initialized.

Fix these problems by removing 'link_mode' from 'ethtool_link_ksettings'
and instead have drivers call ethtool_params_from_link_mode() with the
current link mode. The function will derive the link parameters (e.g.,
speed) from the link mode and fill them in the 'ethtool_link_ksettings'
struct.

v3:
	* Remove link_mode parameter and derive the link parameters in
	  the driver instead of passing link_mode parameter to ethtool
	  and derive it there.

v2:
	* Introduce 'cap_link_mode_supported' instead of adding a
	  validity field to 'ethtool_link_ksettings' struct.

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.
