Stats calculations involve a RMW to add the stat update to the existing value. This is currently not protected by any synchronization mechanism, so data races are possible. Add a spinlock to protect the update. The reader side could be protected using u64_stats, but we would still need a spinlock for the update side anyway. And we always do an update immediately before reading the stats anyway.

Sorry if I missed something, but as you're using that lock within the macb_interrupt(), shouldn't it be a spin_lock_irqsave() for all the callsites that aren't in irq context ? You would risk a deadlock otherwise. Thanks, Maxime
