gianfar: convert u64 status counters to atomic64_t
While looking at some asm dump for an unrelated change, Eric
noticed in the following stats count increment code:
50b8: 81 3c 01 f8 lwz r9,504(r28)
50bc: 81 5c 01 fc lwz r10,508(r28)
50c0: 31 4a 00 01 addic r10,r10,1
50c4: 7d 29 01 94 addze r9,r9
50c8: 91 3c 01 f8 stw r9,504(r28)
50cc: 91 5c 01 fc stw r10,508(r28)
that a 64 bit counter was used on ppc-32 without sync
and hence the "ethtool -S" output was racy.
Here we convert all the values to use atomic64_t so that
the output will always be consistent.
