====================
ethtool: extend coalesce uAPI

In order to support some configuration in coalesce uAPI, this series
extend coalesce uAPI and add support for CQE mode.

Below is some test result with HNS3 driver:
1. old ethtool(ioctl) + new kernel:
estuary:/$ ethtool -c eth0

Change log:
V2 -> V3:
         fix some warning on W=1 builds in #2

         1. fix compile error using allmodconfig in #2
         2. move some property-related modifications from #2 to #1
            for better review suggested by Jakub Kicinski.

Change log from RFC:
V3 -> V4:
         add document explaining the difference between CQE and EQE
         in #1 suggested by Jakub Kicinski.

V2 -> V3:
         1. split #1 into adding new parameter and adding new attributes.
         2. use NLA_POLICY_MAX(NLA_U8, 1) instead of NLA_U8.

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.
