But I think we'd be moving in the right direction. tx_bytes should count bytes sent to the network, not data+metadata sent on an internal bus. If you connect this board to a different controller directly the rx_bytes of the other end should match the tx_bytes of the board with mse102x. The byte accounting would benefit from further massaging in a separate patch.
