====================
ethtool: fix use of SPEED_UNKNOWN constant
This patch series addresses 2 related issues:
1. ethtool_validate_speed() triggers a "signed-unsigned comparison"
warning due to type difference of SPEED_UNKNOWN constant (int)
and argument to ethtool_validate_speed (__u32).
2. some drivers use u16 storage for SPEED_UNKNOWN constant,
resulting in value truncation and thus failure to test against
SPEED_UNKNOWN correctly.
This revised series addresses several feedback comments:
- split up the patch in to series
- do not unnecessarily change drivers that use "int" storage
for speed values
