ethtool: plca: fix plca enable data type while parsing the value
[ Upstream commit 8957261c ] The ETHTOOL_A_PLCA_ENABLED data type is u8. But while parsing the value from the attribute, nla_get_u32() is used in the plca_update_sint() function instead of nla_get_u8(). So plca_cfg.enabled variable is updated with some garbage value instead of 0 or 1 and always enables plca even though plca is disabled through ethtool application. This bug has been fixed by parsing the values based on the attributes type in the policy.
