You have code to reset the driver, you can do it when the user asks
for the setting to be changed via ethtool.  I do not see this as
a problem.

The ethtool change can occur while the driver is already up, you'll
just need to reset the chip and make the new configuration, this is
not a problem.

We want to discourage such hard-coding, not encourage it.

I think you are limiting yourself unnecessarily by refusing to
consider that there may be ways other than Kconfig to adjust this
setting.
