Add softnet_stat to what table? I have to read the actual documentation
and found that you mean /proc/net table. Please mention that in patch
subject.

Regardless, this patch is from ZTE people, for which they have a
reputation for ignoring critical code reviews and "atypical" email
setup that needs to be fixed (try searching for `tc:"zte.com.cn" AND
f:"gregkh@...uxfoundation.org"` on LKML for details). If you can
receive this email, please hit "Reply all", "Group Reply" or similar.
Remember don't top-post, reply inline with appropriate context instead.

Thanks.
