vxge_get_stats() is racy, since it clears a block of memory (net_stats)
possibly still used by other cpus.

We can update this driver to full 64bit stats, since ndo_get_stats64()
provides a private block to store results, and driver maintains 64bit
counters already.

We also remove net_stats field from struct vxge_sw_stats

It looks sane.  Assuming you have not tested it already, I'll give it a
quick sanity check.

Thanks,

I did not test it, I would be grateful if you can do this ;)

Thanks
