Legacy ioctl request like ETHTOOL_GTXCSUM are still used by ethtool utility to get values of legacy flags (which rather work as feature groups). These are calculated from values of actual features and request to set them is implemented as an attempt to set all features mapping to them but there are two inconsistencies: - tx-checksum-fcoe-crc is shown under tx-checksumming but NETIF_F_FCOE_CRC is not included in ETHTOOL_GTXCSUM/ETHTOOL_STXCSUM - tx-scatter-gather-fraglist is shown under scatter-gather but NETIF_F_FRAGLIST is not included in ETHTOOL_GSG/ETHTOOL_SSG As the mapping in ethtool output is more correct from logical point of view, fix ethtool_get_feature_mask() to match it.

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.
