Not sure I get you. __free_old_xmit() is always called with stats
zeroed. So this is just sum-up of one queue completion run.
I don't see how this could become "larger and larger number" as you
describe.

Nope, I don't see how we can hit it. Do not complete anything else
in addition to what was started in xmit(). Am I missing something?
