    [NET]: ethtool ops are the only way · 61a44b9c

    During the transition to the ethtool_ops way of doing things, we supported
    calling the device's ->do_ioctl method to allow unconverted drivers to
    continue working.  Those days are long behind us, all in-tree drivers
    use the ethtool_ops way, and so we no longer need to support this.
    
    The bonding driver is the biggest beneficiary of this; it no longer
    needs to call ioctl() as a fallback if ethtool_ops aren't supported.
    
    Also put a proper copyright statement on ethtool.c.
