[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v3 2/2] net: ethernet: i40evf: fix underlying build error

[Wang, Dongsheng]

Hello Jacob,

Since Carolyn' team is working this, I think we don't need this patch
anymore because this header file is only for ethtool.c.

The cross-including scenario simply doesn't exist.

If you agree, please ignore this patch and just only review the [1/2].


Cheers,
Dongsheng
