ethtool: ignore unused/unreliable fields in set_eee op
This function is used with the set_eee() ethtool operation. Certain fields of struct ethtool_keee() are relevant only for the get_eee() operation. In addition, in case of the ioctl interface, we have no guarantee that userspace sends sane values in struct ethtool_eee. Therefore explicitly ignore all fields not needed for set_eee(). This protects from drivers trying to use unchecked and unreliable data, relying on specific userspace behavior. Note: Such unsafe driver behavior has been found and fixed in the tg3 driver.
