You guys really need to sort this out properly.
Please resubmit whatever final solution is agreed upon.

I noticed that v2.6.39 was tagged today. We should definitely remove
NETIF_F_COMPAT so it won't bite us in the future. The other patch that
fixes ethtool_ops->set_flags compatibility is a bugfix, so it should go
in - if we decide that the SFEATURES compatibility should be removed
it won't matter.

Ben, do you agree?
