Subject: [PATCH 4/4] xfrm: Do not allocate stats in the driver

From: Breno Leitao <leitao@...ian.org>

With commit 34d21de99cea9 ("net: Move {l,t,d}stats allocation to core and
convert veth & vrf"), stats allocation could be done on net core
instead of this driver.

With this new approach, the driver doesn't have to bother with error
handling (allocation failure checking, making sure free happens in the
right spot, etc). This is core responsibility now.

Remove the allocation in the xfrm driver and leverage the network
core allocation.
