Since transmit completion means calling dev_kfree_skb() why not account
there? You could add some info to netdev if necessary to get compile
the statistics.
The algorithm depends on knowing the total number of packets competed
in a single execution of transmit completion (epic based).  We only
want to recalculate the limits once per completion, which happens when
the completion function is called.
I just hate driver api complexity growth.
