Use integrated net_device_stats instead of a static one, and make sure
no transient values are feeded. ndo_get_stats() can be called by
concurrent cpus.

Applied, thanks Eric.

It's pretty freaky how, even to this day, we keep finding these static
function local variables in code which potentially runs multithreaded.
