I thought the ability to attach a BPF program to a fexit of another BPF program will put an end to these unnecessary statistics. IOW I maintain my position that there should be no ethtool stats for XDP. As discussed before real life BPF progs will maintain their own stats at the granularity of their choosing, so we're just wasting datapath cycles. The previous argument that the BPF prog stats are out of admin control is no longer true with the fexit option (IIUC how that works).
