This is enabled by default in other Intel drivers I've checked (e1000, e1000e, iavf, igb and ice). Fixes an out-of-the-box performance issue when running OpenWrt on typical mini-PCs with igc-supported Ethernet controllers and 802.1Q VLAN configurations, as ethtool isn't part of the default packages and sane defaults are expected. In my specific case, with an Intel N100-based machine with four I226-V Ethernet controllers, my upload performance increased from under 30 Mb/s to the expected ~1 Gb/s.
