net: ethtool: keep rtnl_lock for ops using ethtool_op_get_link()

Breno reports following splats on mlx5:

  RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/dev.c (2241)

Looks like I missed ethtool_op_get_link() trying to sync linkwatch,
which needs rtnl_lock. Not all drivers do this - bnxt doesn't,
it just returns the link state, so add an opt-in bit.
