This patch optimizes the loopback driver's statistics by using a single

(Maybe the TSO code should be bracketed by "#if 0" ?)
Hmm, some of us want those counters separate - if this is really
needed, could it be a configurable option, please?
Or we could live with the appropriate patches to ip, ifconfig,
reporting them separately (halving them). That would be fine.
