compat: backport netdev_set_default_ethtool_ops()
Stanislaw found that due to commit
2c60db03 by Eric Dumazet
the wireless core was not assigning driver specific ethtool_ops.
This was fixed by Stanislaw's commit
d07d7507 which added
netdev_set_default_ethtool_ops(). Since Eric's commit
2c60db03
is on v3.7-rc1 Stanislaw's fix is required down to v3.7 as well.
The
d07d7507 commit is currently present on v3.8-rc4 and is on
its way to what we think may be v3.7.5. Because of this kernels
older than v3.7.5 will require the full implementation while
older kernels than v3.7.0 will require just assigning the ops
passed only if netdev has no ops already set just as we used
to have it implemented on cfg80211.
