   Ok, so the general plan would be to add new structs as needed to ethtool.h
   and then extend of the the ethtool enums?
   
There are no enumerations, ethtool commands are merely macro
defines to numbers.  But, otherwise yes.

   Will ethtool ioctls work for generic/virtual interfaces/drivers?

It's all via the devices netdev->do_ioctl(), what is the
problem?
