ethtool: add DEBUG_NTF notification
Send ETHTOOL_MSG_DEBUG_NTF notification message whenever debugging message
mask for a device are modified using ETHTOOL_MSG_DEBUG_SET netlink message
or ETHTOOL_SMSGLVL ioctl request.
The notification message has the same format as reply to DEBUG_GET request.
As with other ethtool notifications, netlink requests only trigger the
notification if the mask is actually changed while ioctl request trigger it
whenever the request results in calling the ethtool_ops handler.
