Summary
ip_tunnel: adapt iptunnel_xmit_stats() to NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_DSTATS
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iptunnel: adapt iptunnelxmitstats() to NETDEVPCPUSTATDSTATS

Blamed commits forgot that vxlan/geneve use udptunnel[6]xmitskb() which call iptunnelxmit_stats().

iptunnelxmitstats() was assuming tunnels were only using NETDEVPCPUSTAT_TSTATS.

@syncp offset in pcpuswnetstats and pcpu_dstats is different.

32bit kernels would either have corruptions or freezes if the syncp sequence was overwritten.

This patch also moves pcpustattype closer to dev->{t,d}stats to avoid a potential cache line miss since iptunnelxmitstats() needs to read it.
