Since I didn't want to update host-veth's TX counters.  If we
bpf_redirect_peer()ed a packet from NIC TC ingress to Pod-veth TC ingress,
I think it means we've bypassed host-veth TX?

Yeah, I think I'll put a comment saying that all devices that support
BPF_F_PEER must use tstats (or must use lstats), then.
