Sorry, I will modify it.

It seems like a better approach, I'll switch to using
sizeof(drvinfo->driver), thank you.

I have removed this line of code for testing. Before removing the code,
I could obtain bus info by entering "ethtool -i". However, after removing
the code, entering "ethtool -i" no longer retrieves the bus info.
Therefore, I believe that this line of code is still necessary.

Sorry, I will remove the unnecessary parentheses, thank you.

Sorry, this check seems unnecessary, I will remove it.

Our rx_error indeed refers to crc_error. I will assign the value of
rx_error to the crc_error in rtase_get_stats64().

What we refer to as rx miss is the packets that can't be received because
the fifo in the MAC is full. We consider this a type of MAC error, identical
to the definition of FramesLostDueToIntMACRcvError.

Indeed, this counter may wrap, but we don't need to accumulate it, because
an increase in the number of rx_miss largely indicates that the system
processing speed is not fast enough. Therefore, the size of this counter
doesn't need to be too large.
