ethtool_aggregate_*_stats() are implemented in net/ethtool/stats.c, a
file which is compiled out when CONFIG_ETHTOOL_NETLINK=n. In order to
avoid adding Kbuild dependencies from drivers (which call these helpers)
on CONFIG_ETHTOOL_NETLINK, let's add some shim definitions which simply
make the helpers dead code.
This means the function prototypes should have been located in
include/linux/ethtool_netlink.h rather than include/linux/ethtool.h.

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.
