This declaration was added to the header to be called from ethtool. ethtool is separated from core for code organization but it is not really a separate entity, it controls very core things. As ethtool is an internal stuff it is not wise to have it in netdevice.h. Move the declaration to net/core/dev.h instead. Remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL call as ethtool can not be built as a module.
