The rtase_dump_state() function is primarily used to dump certain hardware
information. Following discussions with Jakub, it was suggested that we
should design functions to accumulate the 16-bit and 32-bit counter values
to prevent potential overflow issues due to the limited size of the
counters. However, the final decision was to temporarily refrain from
reporting 16-bit and 32-bit counter information. Additionally, since
tx_packet and rx_packet data are already provided through tstat, we
ultimately opted to modify it to the current rtase_get_stats64() function.
