Re: [PATCH net-next v2 2/3] net: dsa: add Arrow SpeedChips XRS700x driver

Either way, can we conclude that ndo_get_stats64 is not a replacement
for ethtool -S, since the latter is blocking and, if implemented correctly,
can return the counters at the time of the call (therefore making sure
that anything that happened before the syscall has been accounted into
the retrieved values), and the former isn't?
ethtool -S is the best source of consistent, up to date statistics we
have. It seems silly not to include everything the hardware offers
there.
