A hds-thresh value is not set correctly if input value is 0. The cause is that ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg(), which is a internal function that returns ringparameters from both ->get_ringparam() and dev->cfg can't return a correct hds-thresh value.
The first patch fixes ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() to set hds-thresh value correcltly.
The second patch adds random test for hds-thresh value. So that we can test 0 value for a hds-thresh properly.
v2: - Skips set_hds_thresh_random test when hds-thresh-max value is too small. (2/2) - Change random range from 1-MAX to 1-(MAX-1). (2/2)

When hds-thresh is configured, ethnl_set_rings() is called, and it calls ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() to get ringparameters from .get_ringparam() callback and dev->cfg. Both hds_config and hds_thresh values should be set from dev->cfg, not from .get_ringparam(). But ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() sets only hds_config from dev->cfg. So, ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() returns always a hds_thresh as 0.
If an input value of hds-thresh is 0, a hds_thresh value from ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() are same. So ethnl_set_rings() does nothing and returns immediately. It causes a bug that setting a hds-thresh value to 0 is not working.
Reproducer: modprobe netdevsim echo 1 > /sys/bus/netdevsim/new_device ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh 100 ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh 0 ethtool -g eth0 #hds-thresh value should be 0, but it shows 100.
The tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/hds.py can test it too with applying a following patch for hds.py.

The ethtool command doesn't support hds-thresh option yet. So, RFC[1] patch is needed to be applied.
v2: - No changes.

hds.py has been testing 0(set_hds_thresh_zero()), MAX(set_hds_thresh_max()), GT(set_hds_thresh_gt()) values for hds-thresh. However if a hds-thresh value was already 0, set_hds_thresh_zero() can't test properly. So, it tests random value first and then tests 0, MAX, GT values.
