Thanks.

The long commit description was from v4. I reworked and shortened it in v5:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/

Regarding the statistics, Paolo previously suggested addressing the HSR dev stats races in a separate series, since there are already several occurrences:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/

Would you prefer that I drop the DEV_STATS_* conversions from the next revision and address all HSR statistics consistently in a follow-up, including hsr_deliver_master() and multicast, rather than adding per-CPU accounting to this series?
