Subject: [PATCH net-next v3] net/core: Export dev_core_stats_*_inc()

Although there is a kfree_skb_reason() helper function that can be used to
find the reason why this skb is dropped, but most callers didn't increase
one of rx_dropped, tx_dropped, rx_nohandler and rx_otherhost_dropped.

For the users, people are more concerned about why the dropped in ip
is increasing. So we can export dev_core_stats_rx_dropped_inc sets,
which users would trace them know why rx_dropped is increasing.

Export dev_core_stats_{rx_dropped, tx_dropped, rx_nohandler,
rx_otherhost_dropped}_inc for trace. Also, move dev_core_stats()
and netdev_core_stats_alloc() to dev.c, as they are not called
externally.

v3: __cold should be added to the netdev_core_stats_alloc().
v2: use __cold instead of inline in dev_core_stats().

I'd like to hear some arguments against having them static inlines + one
external that I proposed earlier.

...as it's not at least mentioned here in the changelog.

This is way over 79/80 chars, break the line before "netdev_".

Same for the line length.
Also notice that now some of the functions you touch have "dev_" prefix,
others have "netdev_", I'd probably take a look into unifying this.

(note for the maintainers that it would be probably better to leave
explicit "inline" here, but no bloat-o-meter was provided by the
author, so I can't say anything for sure)

I'd like to hear suggestions from the maintainers. If the maintainers
have no objections, I'd like to

use your approach.

Okay, I'll unify with the "netdev_" prefix.
