After commit d5dbda23804156ae6f35025ade5307a49d1db6d7 "ethtool: Add
support for vlan accleration.", drivers that have NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX,
and/or NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX feature, but do not allow enable/disable vlan
acceleration via ethtool set_flags, always return -EINVAL from that
function. Fix by returning -EINVAL only if requested features do
not match current settings and can not be changed by driver.

RFC for now, compile tested only.

This looks good, but:

This needs a comment.
