We have observed a sudden spike in rx/tx_packets and rx/tx_bytes
reported under /proc/net/dev. There is a race in mlx5e_update_stats()
and some of the get-stats functions (the one that we hit is the
mlx5e_get_stats() which is called by ndo_get_stats64()).
In particular, the very first thing mlx5e_update_sw_counters()
does is 'memset(s, 0, sizeof(*s))'. For example, if mlx5e_get_stats()
is unlucky at one point, rx_bytes and rx_packets could be 0. One second
later, a normal (and much bigger than 0) value will be reported.
This patch is to use a 'struct mlx5e_sw_stats temp' to avoid
a direct memset zero on priv->stats.sw.
mlx5e_update_vport_counters() has a similar race. Hence, addressed
together. However, memset zero is removed instead because
it is not needed.
I am lucky enough to catch this 0-reset in rx multicast:

v2: Remove memset zero from mlx5e_update_vport_counters()
v1: Use temp and memcpy
