For e.g. e1000, are we sure that packets dropped by hardware are accounted elsewhere?
The e100 and tg3 patches move the count of those frames to rx_missed_errors. e1000 and ixgb were already counting them there in addition to rx_discards, so they were simply removed from rx_discards. 3c59x was counting other errors in rx_discards, so they were removed from that count.
