I see from:

    
http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.9.47/source/drivers/net/xen-netback/interface.c#L228

and:

    
http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.10/source/drivers/net/xen-netback/interface.c#L224

that the counters went from an unsigned long to a u64 so I think
that answers my question and it was a bug/deficiency that was fixed.

Oh well, should anyone else not yet using a 4.10+ kernel experience
this, maybe they will do a search and find these posts and not pull
their hair out. :)

Cheers,
Andy
