[PATCH net-next v1 2/4] net-e1000e: enable ethtool loopback support

[David Decotigny]

This allows ethtool to activate loopback via the get/set_features API.

Tested:
  - HW = 80003ES2LAN (copper), x86_64
  - incoming external 200Mbps, loopback on/off, verified that incoming
    stream resumed
  - incoming external 200Mbps, ifconfig down, loopback on/off,
    ifconfig up, verified that incoming stream resumed
  - incoming external 200Mbps, loopback on, ifconfig down, loopback
    off, ifconfig up, verified that incoming stream resumed
  - the same with a pktgen when loopback is enabled: verifying that
    tx_packets = rx_packets + rx_missed_errors, and that tx_packets is
    very close to pktgen_packets (1 or 2 packets difference, not
    more). Note that rx_missed_errors >> 0
  - artificially simulated failure of enabling loopback -> reported by
    set_features and kept loopback feature marked as not configured.
