Hello,
There is a set of conversion routines ulong[]<->u32[] to address this
32/64-bit compat issue. Using a u32-based bitmap would require drivers
to handle the u32 bitmaps themselves, this might be confusing,
considering there is a standard bitmap api; and might be error-prone
as well. Plus ther

This patch defines a new ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS/SSETTINGS API, handled by
the new get_ksettings/set_ksettings callbacks. This API provides
support for most legacy ethtool_cmd fields, adds support for larger
link mode masks (up to 4064 bits, variable length), and removes
