We currently have dev_get_tstats64() for collecting per-cpu stats of
type pcpu_sw_netstats ("tstats"). However, tstats doesn't allow for
accounting tx/rx drops. We do have a stats variant that does have stats
for dropped packets: struct pcpu_dstats, but there are no core helpers
for using those stats.
The VRF driver uses dstats, by providing its own collation/fetch
functions to do so.
This change adds a common implementation for dstats-type collection,
used when pcpu_stat_type == NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_DSTAT. This is based on the
VRF driver's existing stats collator (plus the unused tx_drops stat from
there). We will switch the VRF driver to use this in the next change.
