be2net: add descriptions for stat counters reported via ethtool
Also rename a few counters appropritely and delete 2 counters that are not implemented in HW. vlan_mismatch_drops does not exist in BE3 and is accounted for in address_mismatch_drops. Do the same thing for BE2 and Lancer. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
