  improve the stmmac driver statistics:

1. don't clear network driver statistics in .ndo_close() and
.ndo_open() cycle
2. avoid some network driver statistics overflow on 32 bit platforms
3. use per-queue statistics where necessary to remove frequent
cacheline ping pongs.

NOTE: v1 and v2 are back ported from an internal LTS tree, I made
some mistakes when backporting and squashing. Now, net-next + v3
has been well tested with 'ethtool -s' and 'ip -s link show'.

Since v3:
  - coding style pointed out by Simon, I.E reverse xmas tree for local
    variable declarations and so on.
  - put the counters in queue structs, I.E per-queue rather than per-cpu
  - use _irqsave() variant where necessary.

Since v2:
  - fix ethtool .get_sset_count, .get_strings and per queue stats
    couting.
  - fix .ndo_get_stats64 only counts the last cpu's pcpu stats.
  - fix typo: s/iff/if in commit msg.
  - remove unnecessary if statement brackets since we have removed
    one LoC.

Since v1:
  - rebase on net-next
  - fold two original patches into one patch
  - fix issues found by lkp
  - update commit msg

## Form letter - net-next-closed

The merge window for v6.5 has begun and therefore net-next is closed
for new drivers, features, code refactoring and optimizations.
We are currently accepting bug fixes only.

Please repost when net-next reopens after July 10th.

RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.
