This patch adds some clarification about the intended way to implement
both SIOCSHWTSTAMP and ethtool's get_ts_info. The HWTSTAMP API has
several Rx filters which are very specific, as well as more general
filters. The specific filters really only exist to support some broken
hardware which can't fully implement the generic filters. This patch
adds clarification that it is okay to support the specific filters in
SIOCSHWTSTAMP by upscaling them to the generic filters. In addition,
update the header for ethtool_ts_info to specify that drivers ought to
only report the filters they support without upscaling in this manner.

The ring_cookie is 64 bits wide which is much larger than can be used
for actual queue index values. So provide some helper routines to
pack a VF index into the cookie. This is useful to steer packets to
a VF ring without having to know the queue layout of the device.

This patch extends the set/get_rxfh ethtool-options for getting or
setting the RSS hash function.
It modifies drivers implementation of set/get_rxfh accordingly.
This change also delegates the responsibility of checking whether a
modification to a certain RX flow hash parameter is supported to the
driver implementation of set_rxfh.
User-kernel API is done through the new hfunc bitmask field in the
ethtool_rxfh struct. A bit set in the hfunc field is corresponding to an
index in the new string-set ETH_SS_RSS_HASH_FUNCS.
Got approval from most of the relevant driver maintainers that their
driver is using Toeplitz, and for the few that didn't answered, also
assumed it is Toeplitz.

Convert the inline comments to kernel-doc format.
Explicitly specify that non-zero autoneg is an error if link
autonegotiation is disabled.
Specify that pause capabilities should be advertised dependent on link
autonegotiation, not the autoneg flag here. There is no way to
opt-out of pause frame autonegotiation, and this improves behaviour
when the link partner is configured to follow pause frame
autonegotiation and our interface is not.
