If there's a v3, this dual check-then-access could be folded into a
.get() and the whole expression then gets a bit simpler:

            data = ethtool("-c " + self.ifname, json=True)[0]
            self._stats_settle_time = 0.25 + \
                    data.get('stats-block-usecs', 0) / 1000 / 1000

Double space here.
