[ Upstream commit 4c70dbe3c0087b439b9e5015057e3e378cf5d8b1 ] Currently, the ring counters are stored in the per ring datastructure. During reset, all the rings are freed together with the associated datastructures. As a result, all the ring error counters will be reset to zero. Add logic to keep track of the total error counts of all the rings and save them before reset (including ifdown). The next patch will display these total ring error counters under ethtool -S.

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 Restructured Text 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.
