This is that way. But bcm43xx sets ethtool ops through bcm43xx_netdev_setup. Why not have rt2x00 do the same? Then we won't have to go through all the trouble of adding things to ieee80211_hw and ieee80211_register_hw to set things in net_device. This would work out pretty well for SET_NETDEV_DEV too.
