Thanks David

On top of this patch (that you added in net-2.6 if I understood well), I
cooked following one, for net-next-2.6 this time.

[PATCH net-next-2.6] irda: use net_device_stats from struct net_device

struct net_device has its own struct net_device_stats member, so use
this one instead of a private copy in the irlan_cb struct.
