Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/4] net: add functionality to net core byte/packet
 counters and use it in r8169

This series adds missing functionality to the net core handling of
byte/packet counters and statistics. The extensions are then used
to remove private rx/tx byte/packet counters in r8169 driver.

Heiner Kallweit (4):
  net: core: add dev_sw_netstats_tx_add
  net: core: add devm_netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats
  r8169: use struct pcpu_sw_netstats for rx/tx packet/byte counters
  r8169: remove no longer needed private rx/tx packet/byte counters
