[Xen-devel] [PATCH net-next v6 8/10] xen-netback: Add stat counters for frag_list skbs

[Zoltan Kiss <zoltan.kiss@xxxxxxxxxx>]

These counters help determine how often the guest sends a packet with more
than MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags.

NOTE: if bisect brought you here, you should apply the series up until #9,
otherwise malicious guests can block other guests by not releasing their sent
packets.
