Let me ask another question. Is pause stats the end of the story? Or
do you plan to add more use case specific statistics?
ethtool -T|--show-time-stamping could show statistics for PTP frames
sent/received?
ethtool --show-eee could show statistics for sleep/wake cycles?
ethtool --show-rxfh-indir could show RSS statistics?
Would you add a new ethtool op for each of these? Or maybe we should
duplex them all through get_ethtool_stats()?
