I'm ok with the simplified ethtool-only version too.
Although I'm confused about what kind of problem there is with
netdev_ops being such a "large structure".
This is the kind of thing there'd be _ONE_ copy of in each driver,
ala.
struct netdev_ops tg3_netdev_ops {
...
.foo = tg3_foo,
...
};
...
tp->dev->netdev_ops = &tg3_netdev_ops;
...
Right?
