eth: fbnic: add locking support for hw stats
This patch adds lock protection for the hardware statistics for fbnic. The hardware statistics access via ndo_get_stats64 is not protected by the rtnl_lock(). Since these stats can be accessed from different places in the code such as service task, ethtool, Q-API, and net_device_ops, a lock-less approach can lead to races. Note that this patch is not a fix rather, just a prep for the subsequent changes in this series. Signed-off-by:Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:
