I'm reading this patch first, so this might be a dumb question...

That is 10 seconds, right?

So this function takes at least 10 seconds?

So this is also 10 seconds? 

Given its name, it looks like this is called via ethtool? Is the
ethtool core holding RTNL? It is generally considered bad to hold RTNL for
