Replace custom statistics tracking with the kernel's dstats infrastructure to simplify code and improve consistency with other network drivers. This change: - Sets dev->pcpu_stat_type = NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_DSTATS for automatic automatic allocation and deallocation. - Removes manual stats fields and their update - Replaces custom nsim_get_stats64() with dev_get_stats() - Uses dev_dstats_tx_add() and dev_dstats_tx_dropped() helpers - Eliminates the need for manual synchronization primitives The dstats framework provides the same functionality with less code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
