I don't like the idea of putting statistics in a map instead of the
regular statistics counters. Sure, for bespoke things people want to put
into their XDP programs, use a map, but for regular packet/byte
counters, update the regular counters so XDP isn't "invisible".
As Jesper pointed out, batching the updates so the global counters are
only updated once per NAPI cycle is the way to avoid a huge performance
overhead of this...
