As I have another comment about compilation stuff, I would also ask to
remove those extra spaces.

struct ethtool_link_settings is finishing with a flexible array (e.g.
[0])  which avoids it to be included in another structure as it breaks
the standard.

Please add this __extension__ and it will be good ;)
