ethtool: Disallow ETHTOOL_SRSSH with both indir table and hash key unchanged
This would be a no-op, so there is no reason to request it. This also allows conversion of the current implementations of ethtool_ops::{get,set}_rxfh_indir to ethtool_ops::{get,set}_rxfh with no change other than their parameters. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
