Linux 5.7 introduced support for forcing master or slave mode for
ethernet devices.
This is helpful for debugging issues like Bug#911560, #845128, #927397
suspectedly involving badly calibrated ethernet PHYs.
Interacting with theese new features require ethtool 5.8 or newer.
Therefore, please upgrade ethtool to 5.8.
