Merge branch 'ethtool_docs'
Ben Hutchings says:
====================
ethtool: Improve documentation
This series converts most comments in <linux/ethtool.h> into kernel-doc
format, and expands them to describe the semantics as well as I
understand them. It also fixes some kernel-doc formatting errors.
I started on this at Solarflare, but they graciously allowed me to take
it away and finish it off.
