This is not a kernel coding style write out the if, use success
oriented flow

Also, shouldn't this logic protect the driver from being called on
non-optional counters?

This isn't OK, the hw_stat_device_show() computes the stat index like
this:

	return stat_attr->show(ibdev, ibdev->hw_stats_data->stats,
			       stat_attr - ibdev->hw_stats_data->attrs, 0, buf);

Which assumes the stats are packed contiguously. This only works
because mlx5 is always putting the optional stats at the end.

The previous patch shouldn't have had the extra blank line then?

index should be unsigned int

The bool is called 'is_add' here but the implementation is 'enable' ?
