TX packets statistics ('tx_packets' counter) used to count GSO packets
as one, even though it contains multiple segments.
This patch will increment the counter by the number of segments, and
align the driver with the behavior of other drivers in the stack.
Note that no information is lost in this patch due to 'tx_tso_packets'
counter existence.
Before, ethtool showed:
$ ethtool -S ens6 | egrep "tx_packets|tx_tso_packets"
tx_packets: 61340
tx_tso_packets: 60954
tx_packets_phy: 2451115
Now, we will see the more logical statistics:
$ ethtool -S ens6 | egrep "tx_packets|tx_tso_packets"
tx_packets: 2451115
tx_tso_packets: 60954
tx_packets_phy: 2451115

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
