Rename the hardware VLAN acceleration features to include "CTAG" to indicate
that they only support CTAGs. Follow up patches will introduce 802.1ad
server provider tagging (STAGs) and require the distinction for hardware not
supporting acclerating both.

Linux is free to call ethtool ops as soon as a netdev exists when probe
finishes. However, we only allocate vmxnet3 tx/rx queues and initialize the
rx_buf_per_pkt field in struct vmxnet3_adapter when the interface is
opened (UP).

<title>vmxnet3: fix ethtool ring buffer size setting</title>

<id>48412a7e7db656b6a1e52799c39f461a06292395</id>
<content type='text'>
Noticed that vmxnet3's get_ringparam function was returning the summation of all
ring buffers on a NIC, rather than just the size of any one ring.  This causes
problems when a vmxnet3 instance has multiple queues, as ethtool, when setting
ring parameters, first gets the current ring parameters to set the existing
values in the set_ringparm commannd.  The result is, that unless both rx and tx
ring sizes are set in a single operation, which ever ring is not set will
silently have its ring count multiplied by the number of queues on the NIC until
it reaches a driver defined maxiumum value.

Fix it by not multiplying the rx and tx ring sizes by the number of queues in
the system, like every other driver.  Tested by myself successfully.

Add a new ethtool operation (get_rxfh_indir_size) to get the
indirectional table size.  Use this to validate the user buffer size
before calling get_rxfh_indir or set_rxfh_indir.  Use get_rxnfc to get
the number of RX rings, and validate the contents of the new
indirection table before calling set_rxfh_indir.  Remove this
validation from drivers.

Correct the description of ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs; it is an array
of currently used locations, not all possible valid locations.

Add note that drivers must not use ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs.

The rule_locs argument to ethtool_ops::get_rxnfc is either NULL or a
pointer to an array of u32, so change the parameter type accordingly.
