Thanks, BTW I noticed that what Roopa has is very close (just missing
multicast):

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220222025230.2119189-12-roopa@nvidia.com/

There are other structures (grep include/ for rx_bytes) already in tree
but none as close.

That's if you wanted to push for reuse (I presume you may prefer not
to), just an FYI..
