Correct queue statistics reading. All queue statistics are stored as unsigned
long values. The retrieval for ethtool fetches these values as u64. However, on
some systems the size of the counters are 32 bit. That yields wrong queue
statistic counters e.g., on arm32 systems such as the stm32mp157. Fix it by
using the correct data type.
Tested on Olimex STMP157-OLinuXino-LIME2 by simple running linuxptp for a short
period of time:
Non-patched kernel:
|root@st1:~# ethtool -S eth0 | grep q0
| q0_tx_pkt_n: 3775276254951 # ???
| q0_tx_irq_n: 879
| q0_rx_pkt_n: 1194000908909 # ???
| q0_rx_irq_n: 278
Patched kernel:
|root@st1:~# ethtool -S eth0 | grep q0
| q0_tx_pkt_n: 2434
| q0_tx_irq_n: 1274
| q0_rx_pkt_n: 1604
| q0_rx_irq_n: 846

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.
