VXLAN, Geneve and Bareudp use various device counters for managing RX and TX statistics: * VXLAN uses the device core_stats for RX and TX drops, tstats for regular RX/TX counters and DEV_STATS_INC() for various types of RX/TX errors. * Geneve uses tstats for regular RX/TX counters and DEV_STATS_INC() for everything else, include RX/TX drops. * Bareudp, was recently converted to follow VXLAN behaviour, that is, device core_stats for RX and TX drops, tstats for regular RX/TX counters and DEV_STATS_INC() for other counter types. Let's consolidate statistics management around the dstats counters instead. This avoids using core_stats in VXLAN and Bareudp, as core_stats is supposed to be used by core networking code only (and not in drivers). This also allows Geneve to avoid using atomic increments when updating RX and TX drop counters, as dstats is per-cpu. Finally, this also simplifies the code as all three modules now handle stats in the same way and with only two different sets of counters (the per-cpu dstats and the atomic DEV_STATS_INC()). Patch 1 creates dstats helper functions that can be used outside of VRF (until then, dstats was VRF-specific). Then patches 2 to 4, convert VXLAN, Geneve and Bareudp, one by one. v2: * Copy skb->len before calling is_ip_tx_frame() in vrf_xmit() (Jakub).
