After this series here, there is no veth test left anymore under
tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/hw/ and they moved over to the
tools/testing/selftests/net/nk_qlease.py which already has the needed
CONFIG_VETH=y (in tools/testing/selftests/net/config).

Stan's series was run where this one here is not in the tree yet, so
if we would add CONFIG_VETH=y into tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/hw/config
it would be unnecessary - I presume we don't want to add in that case.

Thanks,
Daniel
