How is the redirecting configured?

Could you split this patch into basic netdev datapath,
and then as separate patches support for ethtool configuration features,
each with its own patch? This will make it easier for area experts to
review.

The base patch can probably include these:

+	.get_drvinfo		= bcmasp_get_drvinfo,
+	.get_link		= ethtool_op_get_link,
+	.get_link_ksettings	= phy_ethtool_get_link_ksettings,
+	.set_link_ksettings	= phy_ethtool_set_link_ksettings,
+	.get_msglevel		= bcmasp_get_msglevel,
+	.set_msglevel		= bcmasp_set_msglevel,

WoL can be a separate patch:

+	.get_wol		= bcmasp_get_wol,
+	.set_wol		= bcmasp_set_wol,

Stats a separate patch:

+	.get_strings		= bcmasp_get_strings,
+	.get_ethtool_stats	= bcmasp_get_ethtool_stats,
+	.get_sset_count		= bcmasp_get_sset_count,
+	.nway_reset		= phy_ethtool_nway_reset,

Flow steering separate:

+	.get_rxnfc		= bcmasp_get_rxnfc,
+	.set_rxnfc		= bcmasp_set_rxnfc,

EEE separate:

+	.set_eee		= bcmasp_set_eee,
+	.get_eee		= bcmasp_get_eee,
