Dear Kohei,


Thank you for your patch.

Am 13.08.25 um 09:50 schrieb Kohei Enju:
rx_long_byte_count shows the value of the GORC (Good Octets Received
Count) register. However, the register value is already shown as
rx_bytes and they always show the same value.

Remove rx_long_byte_count as the Intel ethernet driver e1000e did in
commit 0a939912cf9c ("e1000e: cleanup redundant statistics counter").

Tested on Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection.

Kind regards,

PS: Should you resend, *redundant* instead of *duplicated* might better describe the removed counter.
