cbf2d604a1 vmxnet3: Remove incorrect implementation of ethtool_ops::get_flags()
Only some netdev feature flags correspond directly to ethtool feature
flags.  ethtool_op_get_flags() does the right thing.

115924b6bd net: Getting rid of the x86 dependency to built vmxnet3
This patch removes config dependency on x86 to build vmxnet3 driver. Thus
the driver can be built on big endian architectures now. Although vmxnet3
is not supported on VMs other than x86 architecture, all this code goes in
to ensure correctness. If the code is not dependent on x86, it should not
assume little endian architecture in any of its operations.
