Subject: [PATCH rdma-next v1 03/11] RDMA/counter: Add a descriptor in struct rdma_hw_stats

From: Aharon Landau <aharonl@...dia.com>

Add a counter statistic descriptor structure in rdma_hw_stats. In
addition to the counter name, more meta-information will be added.
This code extension is needed for optional-counter support in the
following patches.
