[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 06/11] net/hns3: fix stats flip overflow

[Lijun Ou]

From: Chengchang Tang <tangchengchang at huawei.com>

Currently, statistics may overflow in some scenarios.

For example, if HW statistics are reset by stats reset operation,
but there are still a lot of residual packets exist in the HW
queues and these packets are error packets, flip may occurred
because the ipacket is obtained by subtracting the number of
software error packets from the number of HW received packets.

This patch verifies the calculation and returns 0 when overflow
may occur.
