Subject: [net-next 13/15] net/mlx5e: Optimize update stats work

From: Gal Pressman <galp@...lanox.com>

Unlike ethtool stats, get_stats ndo provides information cached by
update stats work that is running in the background without updating
them explicitly.
We cannot update all counters inside the ndo because some
updates require firmware commands that cannot be performed under a
spinlock.

update_stats work does not need to update ALL counters, since only
some of them are needed by ndo_get_stats.
This patch will allow for a minimal run of update_stats using an extra
parameter which will update necessary counters only and cut 13
firmware commands in each iteration of the work.

Work duration previous to this patch: ~4200us.
Work duration after this patch: ~700us (17% of the original time).
