Some ethernet modules use nonstandard power levels [1]. Extend ethtool module implementation to support new attributes that will allow user to change maximum power. Rename structures and functions to be more generic. Introduce an example of the new API in ice driver.
I'm no SFP expert but seems reasonable. Would be good to insert more references to the SFP / CMIS specs which describe the standard registers. Also the series is suffering from lack of docs and spec, please update both: Documentation/networking/ethtool-netlink.rst Documentation/netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml
