What's going on? Why cast to char *?

These are confusing unless you see what virtnet_stats_str_attr
is so please move them near that definition.

I have an idea (not a must): why don't we simply create an enum
enum virtnet_stats {
	VIRTNET_TX_KICK,
	VIRTNET_RX_KICK,
	....
	VIRTNET_MAX_STAT,
}


now stats can just do
	stats->data[VIRTNET_RX_KICK] instead of stats->rx_kick
which is not a big problem, but copying them in bulk
becomes straight-forward, no need for macros at all.

If we decide to do this, needs to be a separate patch,
then this one on top.

VIRTNET_STAT_OFF does not save much here, but if you are after
saving characters then make the macro instanciate the string
as well.

if you pass virtnet_stats_str_attr to VIRTNET_STAT macro,
then it's explicit and VIRTNET_NUM_STATS won't be needed either.

This will allocate buffers for online cpus only, but the above
will fill them in for all possible cpus.
Will this overrun some buffer?

The coding style says
	Descendants are always substantially shorter than the parent and
	are placed substantially to the right.

you can't call it substantially to the right if it's to the left of
the opening '('  :), so please indent it aligning on the opening.

when you feel the need to break lines like this - don't :)
use an inline function instead.

don't put {} around single statements pls.
