ethtool: Veto some operations during firmware flashing process
Some operations cannot be performed during the firmware flashing process. For example: - Port must be down during the whole flashing process to avoid packet loss while committing reset for example. - Writing to EEPROM interrupts the flashing process, so operations like ethtool dump, module reset, get and set power mode should be vetoed. - Split port firmware flashing should be vetoed. In order to veto those scenarios, add a flag in 'struct net_device' that indicates when a firmware flash is taking place on the module and use it to prevent interruptions during the process.
