net/mlx4_en: fix tx_dropped bug
1) mlx4_en_xmit() can increment priv->stats.tx_dropped, but this variable is overwritten in mlx4_en_DUMP_ETH_STATS(). 2) This increment was not SMP safe, as a port might have many TX queues. Add a per TX ring tx_dropped to fix these issues. This is u32 as mlx4_en_DUMP_ETH_STATS() will add a 32bit field. So lets avoid bugs with SNMP agents having to cope with partial overwraps. (One of these agents being bond_fold_stats()) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reported-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Cc: Eugenia Emantayev <eugenia@mellanox.com> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
