      mlx4: give precise rx/tx bytes/packets counters · 40931b85
      Eric Dumazet authored
      mlx4 stats are chaotic because a deferred work queue is responsible
      to update them every 250 ms.
      
      Even sampling stats every one second with "sar -n DEV 1" gives
      variations like the following :

      This patch allows rx/tx bytes/packets counters being folded at the
      time we need stats.
      
      We now can fetch stats every 1 ms if we want to check NIC behavior
      on a small time window. It is also easier to detect anomalies.
