Subject: [PATCH 3.16 086/294] i40e: Initialize 64-bit statistics TX ring
 seqcount

3.16.50-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@...il.com>

commit 7d6d067790289e4f61f59fa60550ca5918aa25bd upstream.

On 32-bit hosts and with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC we should be seeing a
lockdep splat indicating this seqcount is not correctly initialized, fix
that.
