It's a frequent pattern to use netdev->stats for the less frequently accessed counters and per-cpu counters for the frequently accessed counters (rx/tx bytes/packets). Add a default ndo_get_stats64() implementation for this use case. Subsequently switch more drivers to use this pattern.
v2:
- add patches for replacing ip_tunnel_get_stats64 Requested additional migrations will come in a separate series.
v3:
- add atomic_long_t member rx_frame_errors in patch 3 for making counter updates atomic
Applied, thank you!
