e1000: update device ID table for register dumps
e1000: update device ID table for register dumps with new devices
From: Auke Kok <auke-jan.h.kok@xxxxxxxxx>
The register dump routine of e1000 was missing several newer chipsets. I
reimported the mac detection code from the linux e1000 driver. This fixes
newer NIC's reporting that their bus type is PCI instead of PCI-e.

Fix handling of statistics where the label is exactly 32 (ETH_GSTRING_LEN)
characters long (observed with chelsio 10G driver).
Before it would print garbage because of going by end

ethtool v5: add autoneg advertise feature
adds the ability to change the advertised speed and duplex for a network interface. Previously, a network interface was only able to advertise all supported speed's and duplex's, or one individual speed and duplex. The feature allows the user to choose which supported speed's and duplex's to advertise by using the hex value.
