This patch doesn't change any functionality, but just extend
MIB counter register and ethtool-statistic names with "err".

The counter MVPP2_MIB_FRAGMENTS_RCVD in fact is Error counter.
Extend REG name and appropriated ethtool statistic reg-name
with the ERR/err.

Hi Stefan

I suspect this is now ABI and you cannot change it. You at least need
to argue why it is not ABI.

Hi Andrew,

I not familiar with ABI concept. Does this mean we cannot change, fix or extend driver ethtool counters?

Thanks,
Stefan.

Please strip the gerrit IDs from the upstream patches.
Checkpatch flags this as an error. Please always run 
checkpatch --strict before submitting.

Extend yes, but some user may have a script tracking
"fragments_received", that script would break if you 
rename it.

It'd be good if the hardware errors were reported in 
standard netdev statistics.

As Jakub pointed out, there could be user space looking for this name.

What you could do is add fragments_err_received in addition to
fragments_received. That should not break anything.
