What stats are you referring to? I assume the remaining stats in the
xmit path mostly in sch_generic.c? By the way I need to do another
review of the classifier code paths but I believe we could drop the
ingress qdisc lock now (finally)...

Also some clean up in sch_generic.c could help this. Notes for
myself mostly,

	dev_requeue_skb() can be a void its return value is always 0

	the users of handle_dev_cpu_collision and sch_direct_xmit
	don't use the qlen for anything returning any positive
	integer looks like it would work.


Thanks,
John
