[PATCH net] ethtool: Embed FEC hist ranges as buffer in struct

[Eric Joyner <eric.joyner@amd.com>]

When a driver's .get_fec_stats() handler is called and the driver
supports FEC histogram stats, the driver supplies the histogram bin
ranges via a pointer.  This pointer is assigned while under the netdev
ops lock in fec_prepare_data(), but the actual data is only read after
the lock is released; so this allows the driver to change the ranges
(e.g. from another .get_fec_stats() call) while the current call chain
is reading them in fec_fill_reply().

Fix this by embedding a buffer for the driver-supplied ranges in struct
ethtool_fec_hist instead of using a pointer; this ensures there's an
ethtool core-owned consistent copy that can be used after the netdev ops
lock is dropped and later in fec_fill_reply(). While some drivers like
bnxt use a constant struct for their ranges and won't be affected by
this issue, others like mlx5 (and eventually ionic) will use a
dynamically constructed range struct and could potentially run into an
issue.

Since the kernel API changed here, change the in-tree drivers that
report FEC histogram stats to copy their ranges instead of just
supplying a pointer.
