====================
net: add atomic dev->stats infra

Long standing KCSAN issues are caused by data-race around
some dev->stats changes.

Most performance critical paths already use per-cpu
variables, or per-queue ones.

It is reasonable (and more correct) to use atomic operations
for the slow paths.

First patch adds the infrastructure, then three patches address
the most common paths that syzbot is playing with.
