Ah, for some reason I deleted that line from the commit message. Will
include it in the v2.

I reworked i40e_clean_rx_irq and i40e_clean_rx_irq_zc to do what you've
described -- this is also how I ended up approaching counting TX cleaned.

Sure, I've changed the trace prototype, struct, and print statement to use
"rx_cleaned" and "tx_cleaned" instead of "work_done" and "tx_work_done".

Yea, I've used those for debugging other things, as well - they are quite
useful, but I agree... I think that's out of scope for this set :)
Thank you very much for all your detailed feedback. Hopefully the v2 will
be a bit closer.
