As far as I can grep, only mlx4 supports this, and it has a different
meaning in that driver.
So I guess a new netdev_feature would be a better solution.

I completely forgot to add that you'd better to mention in both
enumeration/feature and its Ethtool string that the feature applies
to Tx path.
Smth like:
NETIF_F_SKB_TX_NO_LINEAR{,_BIT}, "skb-tx-no-linear"
or
NETIF_F_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR{,_BIT}, "tx-skb-no-linear"
Otherwise, it may be confusing for users and developers.
