In netdevsim mode NetDrvEpEnv gives the remote end a namespace of its
own and leaves the local end in the one the test was started in, so
the filtering of the host applies to the traffic the test sends to
itself. A host that drops it fails the test:
# nft add rule inet t input ip saddr 192.0.2.0/24 tcp flags syn drop
# ./ping.py
ok 1 ping.test_v4
ok 2 ping.test_v6
not ok 3 ping.test_tcp
# Stopping tests due to KsftTerminate.
ICMP is let through where TCP is not, which is why the first two pass
and the test then sits there until it is killed.
Re-execute the test in a namespace of its own, the way nft_audit.sh and
nft_concat_range.sh already do, and mount sysfs again there so that the
netdevsim devices the test creates are the ones it sees.

napi_threaded needs the number of combined channels of the device and
asks ethtool to print it as JSON. Not every ethtool prints that one:
ethtool 6.11 does it for -k, -a, -c, -g and -x, but not for -l, and
the test ends in the first case:
CmdExitFailure: Command failed: ethtool --json -l eth4
STDERR: b'ethtool: bad command line argument(s)
JSON output not available for this subcommand
not ok 1 napi_threaded.napi_init
Ask the kernel for the count over netlink, which is where ethtool reads
it too, so the test no longer depends on the ethtool version installed.
Changing the count stays with ethtool -L, which needs no JSON. No other
test in the group asks ethtool for something it cannot print, so this is
the only one that needs it.
