"openvswitch: Remove vport stats" removed the per-vport statistics, in
order to use the netdev's statistics fields.
"openvswitch: Fix ovs_vport_get_stats()" fixed the export of these stats
to user-space, by using the provided netdev_ops to collate them - but ovs
internal devices still use an unallocated dev->tstats field to count
packets, which are no longer exported by this api.
Allocate the dev->tstats field for ovs internal devices, and wire up
ndo_get_stats64 with the original implementation of
ovs_vport_get_stats().
On its own, "openvswitch: Fix ovs_vport_get_stats()" fixes the OOPs,
unmasking a full-on panic on arm64:
