Subject: [PATCH] igb: Record hardware RX overruns in net_stats


Hardware RX fifo overruns for the 82576 is stored in the
RNBC (Receive No Buffers Count) register.

I choose the store the RNBC value in net_stats.rx_fifo_errors.

Saving the stats in dev->net_stats makes it visible via
/proc/net/dev as "fifo", and thus viewable to ifconfig
as "overruns" and 'netstat -i' as "RX-OVR".

The Receive No Buffers Count (RNBC) can already be queried by
ethtool -S as "rx_no_buffer_count".
