From: Maxim Mikityanskiy <maximmi@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 2847bfed888fbb8bf4c8e8067fd6127538c2c700 ] ethtool-netlink ignores dev->hw_features and may confuse the drivers by asking them to enable features not in the hw_features bitmask. For example: 1. ethtool -k eth0 tls-hw-tx-offload: off [fixed] 2. ethtool -K eth0 tls-hw-tx-offload on tls-hw-tx-offload: on 3. ethtool -k eth0 tls-hw-tx-offload: on [fixed] Fitler out dev->hw_features from req_wanted to fix it and to resemble the legacy ethtool behavior.
