As you have to introduce new commands and a new structure, please
include the word 'link' in their names.

'indice'?  Shoudn't this be 'index' or 'mode'?

Spaces around the + sign.

checkpatch claims you shouldn't introduce such typedefs.

We do the deprecating; the structures are purely passive.

Delete this last paragraph.

Please delete this TODO and all the similar ones; we don't remove
userland APIs just because they're deprecated.

Should use DIV_ROUND_UP().

Why __aligned(4)?  Do you have any reason to think that some padding
might be added otherwise?

This memset() looks redundant.

I think the array conversion ought to be a separate function that you
can call 3 times here, rather than repeating it here.  In fact that
could be a general function in lib/bitmap.c.

Similarly for the opposite conversion below.

ethtool isn't the only program that uses this API, not by a long way. 
And since it's the program at fault, not the device, it doesn't make a
lot of sense to use netdev_warn().

So I suggest a message more like that in warn_legacy_capability_use()
in kernel/capability.c.

I don't think this makes sense - it's not as if ethtool will
automatically try to set these without it being explicitly requested by
the user.  Just return -EINVAL without logging anything.
