It can be nice to update the firmware's stats while
debugging other bits of the driver, so add helper method
to do this.

I don't see anyone calling this. How are you planning to use it?

The RFC patch that debugs tx-hang calls it..nice to see he firmware's
buffer reap stats and such before/after trying to flush the buffers.

I figure it will be useful for other such uses as well, now that stats
actually work.

Thanks,
Ben

Ok, I'll drop this patch for now. You can resend when we have callers
for this.
