This patch set is extending ethtool to make it more usable on automotive
PHYs like NXP TJA11XX.

They make use of new KAPI (currently in net-next, will go probably to the
kernel 5.8-rc1):
- PHY master-slave role configuration and status informaton. Mostly needed
  for 100Base-T1 PHYs due the lack of autonegatiation support.
- Signal Quality Index to investigate cable related issues.

changes v4:
- rebase is against current ethtool master
- pull headers from current kernel master
- use tabs instead of spaces in the manual

changes v3:
- rename "Port mode" to "master-slave"
- use [preferred|forced]-[master|slave] for information and
  configuration

changes v2:
- add master-slave information to the "ethtool --help" and man page
- move KAPI update changes to the separate patch. 

Oleksij Rempel (3):
  update UAPI header copies
  netlink: add master/slave configuration support
  netlink: add LINKSTATE SQI support
