batman-adv: Revert "disable ethtool link speed detection when auto negotiation off"
The commit 8c46fcd7 ("batman-adv: disable ethtool link speed detection when auto negotiation off") disabled the usage of ethtool's link_ksetting when auto negotation was enabled due to invalid values when used with tun/tap virtual net_devices. According to the patch, automatic measurements should be used for these kind of interfaces. But there are major flaws with this argumentation: * automatic measurements are not implemented * auto negotiation has nothing to do with the validity of the retrieved values The first point has to be fixed by a longer patch series. The "validity" part of the second point must be addressed in the same patch series by dropping the usage of ethtool's link_ksetting (thus always doing automatic measurements over ethernet). Drop the patch again to have more default values for various net_device types/configurations. The user can still overwrite them using the batadv_hardif's BATADV_ATTR_THROUGHPUT_OVERRIDE.
