Jakub Kicinski 095cfcfe13 ethtool: handle info/flash data copying outside rtnl_lock
We need to increase the lifetime of the data for .get_info
and .flash_update beyond their handlers inside rtnl_lock.

Allocate a union on the heap and use it instead.

Note that we now copy the ethcmd before we lookup dev,
hopefully there is no crazy user space depending on error
codes.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
