Merge branch 'veth-XDP-stats-improvement'

Toshiaki Makita says:

====================
veth: XDP stats improvement

ndo_xdp_xmit in veth did not update packet counters as described in [1].
Also, current implementation only updates counters on tx side so rx side
events like XDP_DROP were not collected.
This series implements the missing accounting as well as support for
ethtool per-queue stats in veth.

Patch 1: Update drop counter in ndo_xdp_xmit.
Patch 2: Update packet and byte counters for all XDP path, and drop
         counter on XDP_DROP.
Patch 3: Support per-queue ethtool stats for XDP counters.

Note that counters are maintained on per-queue basis for XDP but not
otherwise (per-cpu and atomic as before). This is because 1) tx path in
veth is essentially lockless so we cannot update per-queue stats on tx,
and 2) rx path is net core routine (process_backlog) which cannot update
per-queue based stats when XDP is disabled. On the other hand there are
real rxqs and napi handlers for veth XDP, so update per-queue stats on
rx for XDP packets, and use them to calculate tx counters as well,
contrary to the existing non-XDP counters.
