Eric Dumazet 316580b69d u64_stats: provide u64_stats_t type
On 64bit arches, struct u64_stats_sync is empty and provides
no help against load/store tearing.

Using READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() would be needed.

But the update side would be slightly more expensive.

local64_t was defined so that we could use regular adds
in a manner which is atomic wrt IRQs.

However the u64_stats infra means we do not have to use
local64_t on 32bit arches since the syncp provides the needed
protection.

/*
* To properly implement 64bits network statistics on 32bit and 64bit hosts,
* we provide a synchronization point, that is a noop on 64bit or UP kernels.
*
* Key points :
* 1) Use a seqcount on SMP 32bits, with low overhead.
* 2) Whole thing is a noop on 64bit arches or UP kernels.
* 3) Write side must ensure mutual exclusion or one seqcount update could
* be lost, thus blocking readers forever.
* If this synchronization point is not a mutex, but a spinlock or
* spinlock_bh() or disable_bh() :
* 3.1) Write side should not sleep.
* 3.2) Write side should not allow preemption.
* 3.3) If applicable, interrupts should be disabled.
*
* 4) If reader fetches several counters, there is no guarantee the whole values
* are consistent (remember point 1) : this is a noop on 64bit arches anyway)
*
* 5) readers are allowed to sleep or be preempted/interrupted : They perform
* pure reads. But if they have to fetch many values, it's better to not allow
* preemptions/interruptions to avoid many retries.
*
* 6) If counter might be written by an interrupt, readers should block interrupts.
* (On UP, there is no seqcount_t protection, a reader allowing interrupts could
* read partial values)
*
* 7) For irq and softirq uses, readers can use u64_stats_fetch_begin_irq() and
* u64_stats_fetch_retry_irq() helpers
*
* Usage :
*
* Stats producer (writer) should use following template granted it already got
* an exclusive access to counters (a lock is already taken, or per cpu
* data is used [in a non preemptable context])
*
* spin_lock_bh(...) or other synchronization to get exclusive access
* ...
* u64_stats_update_begin(&stats->syncp);
* u64_stats_add(&stats->bytes64, len); // non atomic operation
* u64_stats_inc(&stats->packets64); // non atomic operation
* u64_stats_update_end(&stats->syncp);
*
* While a consumer (reader) should use following template to get consistent
* snapshot for each variable (but no guarantee on several ones)
*
* u64 tbytes, tpackets;
* unsigned int start;
*
* do {
* start = u64_stats_fetch_begin(&stats->syncp);
* tbytes = u64_stats_read(&stats->bytes64); // non atomic operation
* tpackets = u64_stats_read(&stats->packets64); // non atomic operation
* } while (u64_stats_fetch_retry(&stats->syncp, start));
*
*
* Example of use in drivers/net/loopback.c, using per_cpu containers,
* in BH disabled context.
