Taehee Yoo 216a61d33c net: ethtool: fix ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() returns a hds_thresh value always as 0.
When hds-thresh is configured, ethnl_set_rings() is called, and it calls
ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() to get ringparameters from .get_ringparam()
callback and dev->cfg.
Both hds_config and hds_thresh values should be set from dev->cfg, not
from .get_ringparam().
But ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() sets only hds_config from dev->cfg.
So, ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() returns always a hds_thresh as 0.

If an input value of hds-thresh is 0, a hds_thresh value from
ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() are same. So ethnl_set_rings() does
nothing and returns immediately.
It causes a bug that setting a hds-thresh value to 0 is not working.

Reproducer:
    modprobe netdevsim
    echo 1 > /sys/bus/netdevsim/new_device
    ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh 100
    ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh 0
    ethtool -g eth0
    #hds-thresh value should be 0, but it shows 100.

The tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/hds.py can test it too with
applying a following patch for hds.py.
