Subject: [net-next 2/7] igb: Fix stats output on i210/i211 parts.

From: Carolyn Wyborny <carolyn.wyborny@...el.com>

Due to a hardware issue, on i210 and i211 parts, the TNCRS statistic
provides an invalid value.  This patch changes the update stats function
to increment the stat only for non-i210/i211 parts.
