While you're at it, you can drop the per-CPU stats and make them only
per-queue.  There is unlikely to be any benefit in maintaining them
per-CPU while receive and transmit processing is serialised per-queue.

The RX and TX interrupt names for a multiqueue device should follow the
formats "<device>-rx-<index>" and "<device>-tx-<index>".
