On a quick look this driver supports multiple queues, so bumping
per-device stats without holding locks (on the rx side) seems racy.
Plus the netdev->stats are deprecated. The "modern" way of implementing
stats is to add the appropriate members to the ring / channel structure
and implement .ndo_get_stats64()
