Subject: [RFC PATCH] net/mlx5e: Temp software stats variable is not required

mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats can be called from two threads,
1) ndo_get_stats64
2) get_ethtool_stats

For this reason and to minimize concurrency issue impact on 64bit machines
mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats folds the software stats into a temporary sw
stats variable and at the end memcopy it to the global driver stats,
both ethtool and ndo will use the global software stats copy to report
whatever stats they need.

Actually ndo_get_stats64 doesn't need to fold the whole software stats
(mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats), all it needs is five counters to fill the
rtnl_link_stats64 relevant stats paramter.

Hence this patch introduces a simpler helper function to fold software
stats for ndo_get_stats64 mlx5e_fold_sw_stats which will work directly on
rtnl_link_stats64 stats parameter and not on the global or even temporary
mlx5e_sw_stats, And since now ndo_get_stats64 doesn't call
mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats any more, we can make it static and remove the
temp var.

This patch will fix high stack usage of mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats on
x86 gcc-4.9 and higher.  And the concurrency issue between mlx5's
ndo_get_stats64 and get_ethtool_stats.
