Ben Hutchings e596e6e4d5 ethtool: Report link-down while interface is down
While an interface is down, many implementations of
ethtool_ops::get_link, including the default, ethtool_op_get_link(),
will report the last link state seen while the interface was up.  In
general the current physical link state is not available if the
interface is down.

Define ETHTOOL_GLINK to reflect whether the interface *and* any
physical port have a working link, and consistently return 0 when the
interface is down.
