[PATCH net-next v3 0/2] net: stmmac: fix & improve driver statistics

[Jisheng Zhang]

improve the stmmac driver statistics:

1. don't clear network driver statistics in .ndo_close() and
.ndo_open() cycle
2. avoid some network driver statistics overflow on 32 bit platforms
3. use pcpu statistics where necessary to remove frequent cacheline
ping pongs.

NOTE: v1 and v2 are back ported from an internal LTS tree, I made
some mistakes when backporting and squashing. Now, net-next + v3
has been well tested with 'ethtool -s' and 'ip -s link show'.

Since v2:
  - fix ethtool .get_sset_count, .get_strings and per queue stats
    couting.
  - fix .ndo_get_stats64 only counts the last cpu's pcpu stats.
  - fix typo: s/iff/if in commit msg.
  - remove unnecessary if statement brackets since we have removed
    one LoC.

Since v1:
  - rebase on net-next
  - fold two original patches into one patch
  - fix issues found by lkp
  - update commit msg
