3.16.47-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 37a7fdf2892be124545ddaf99b85de576121476c upstream. Now tg3 NIC's stats will be cleared after ifdown/ifup. bond_get_stats traverse its salves to get statistics,cumulative the increment.If a tg3 NIC is added to bonding as a slave,ifdown/ifup will cause bonding's stats become tremendous value (ex.1638.3 PiB) because of negative increment.
