Subject: ethtool: fix stack clash in do_get_phy_tunable and do_set_phy_tunable
Patch-mainline: v4.17
Git-commit: ef49e589ece1f5cade8101bd9d9be154b62125f7
References: bsc#1092037

Users reported stack clash detected when using --get-phy-tunable on
ppc64le. Problem is caused by local variable ds of type struct
ethtool_tunable which has last member "void *data[0]". Accessing data[0]
(as do_get_phy_tunable() does) or adding requested value at the end (which
is what kernel ioctl does) writes past allocated space for the variable.

Make ds part of an anonymous structure to make sure there is enough space
for tunable value and drop the (pointless) access to ds.data[0]. The same
problem also exists in do_set_phy_tunable().

Fixes: b0fe96dec90f ("Ethtool: Implements ETHTOOL_PHY_GTUNABLE/ETHTOOL_PHY_STUNABLE and PHY downshift")
