Won't this break drivers which for some reason have their own
ethtool_ops?

bjorn@nemi:/usr/local/src/git/linux$ git grep -- "->ethtool_ops" drivers/net/wireless/
drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmfmac/dhd_linux.c:    ndev->ethtool_ops = &brcmf_ethtool_ops;
drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2100.c: dev->ethtool_ops = &ipw2100_ethtool_ops;
drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2200.c: net_dev->ethtool_ops = &ipw_ethtool_ops;
drivers/net/wireless/libertas/main.c:   dev->ethtool_ops = &lbs_ethtool_ops;
drivers/net/wireless/libertas/mesh.c:   mesh_dev->ethtool_ops = &lbs_ethtool_ops;
drivers/net/wireless/prism54/islpci_dev.c:      ndev->ethtool_ops = &islpci_ethtool_ops;
