Sorry, this patch set did not follow this.

I will fix in next version.

But I plan that will be done in the commit "virtio-net: support queue stat".
This commit in next version will report all stat by ethtool -S.
The commit "virtio-net: support queue stat" in next version
will not report the duplicate the stats that reported via the netlink API.

Do you think ok?

Thanks.
