Thank you for comments, I will move it to ethtool.

[PATCH v6 net-next] net: hyperv: Add attributes to show TX indirection table
An imbalanced TX indirection table causes netvsc to have low
performance. This table is created and managed during runtime. To help
better diagnose performance issues caused by imbalanced tables, add
device attributes to show the content of TX indirection tables.

v4: use a separated group to organize tx_indirection better, change
location of attributes init/exit to netvsc_drv_init/exit
v5: update variable orders
v6: update names to be more precise, remove useless assignment
Thank you all for comments, learned a lot.
