Can you please at least _COMPILE_ the patches you post
so that my time isn't wasted like this?

include/linux/ethtool.h:259: error: two types specified in one empty declaration

Of course, you missed the semi-colon:

+struct ethtool_perm_addr {
+       u32     cmd;            /* ETHTOOLGPERMADDR */
+       int     size;
+       char    data[0];
+}
+

But even with that fixed:

include/linux/ethtool.h:271: warning: "struct ethtool_addr" declared inside 
parameter list
include/linux/ethtool.h:271: warning: its scope is only this definition or 
declaration, which is probably not what you want

+int ethtool_op_get_perm_addr(struct net_device *dev, int len,
+                            struct ethtool_addr *addr);

You probably meant ethtool_perm_addr as the type for that parameter.

This patch wasn't even put through basic smoke tests such as
_COMPILING_ it, otherwise these obvious errors would have been caught
patch submission.

I'm really upset because this kind of stuff wastes a lot of my
time.
