you'd probably catch this when doing the real implementation but beware
of updating nstat directly in the fetch loop since the loop may retry

There's a dedicated API now for exposing pre-queue stats. 
Since tx_dropped was always zero we can as well delete it from ethtool
-S and think about adding netdev queue stats in net-next
