Subject: [net 9/9] Documentation: TLS: fix stat counters description

From: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@...lanox.com>

Add missing description of counters.
Split tx_tls_encrypted counter into two, to give packets
and bytes indications.

Fixes: f42c104f2ec9 ("Documentation: add TLS offload documentation")

 Following minimum set of TLS-related statistics should be reported
 by the driver:
 
- * ``rx_tls_decrypted`` - number of successfully decrypted TLS segments
- * ``tx_tls_encrypted`` - number of in-order TLS segments passed to device
-   for encryption
+ * ``rx_tls_decrypted_packets`` - number of successfully decrypted RX packets
+   which were part of a TLS stream.
+ * ``rx_tls_decrypted_bytes`` - number of TLS payload bytes in RX packets
+   which were successfully decrypted.
+ * ``tx_tls_encrypted_packets`` - number of TX packets passed to the device
+   for encryption of their TLS payload.
+ * ``tx_tls_encrypted_bytes`` - number of TLS payload bytes in TX packets
+   passed to the device for encryption.
+ * ``tx_tls_ctx`` - number of TLS TX HW offload contexts added to device for
+   encryption.
  * ``tx_tls_ooo`` - number of TX packets which were part of a TLS stream
-   but did not arrive in the expected order
- * ``tx_tls_drop_no_sync_data`` - number of TX packets dropped because
-   they arrived out of order and associated record could not be found
+   but did not arrive in the expected order.
+ * ``tx_tls_drop_no_sync_data`` - number of TX packets which were part of
+   a TLS stream dropped, because they arrived out of order and associated
+   record could not be found.
+ * ``tx_tls_drop_bypass_req`` - number of TX packets which were part of a TLS
+   stream dropped, because they contain both data that has been encrypted by
+   software and data that expects hardware crypto offload.
