[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 010/180] usbnet: Fix tx_bytes statistic running backward in cdc_ncm

3.16.7-ckt11 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings at codethink.co.uk>

commit 7a1e890e2168e33fb62d84528e996b8b4b478fea upstream.

cdc_ncm disagrees with usbnet about how much framing overhead should
be counted in the tx_bytes statistics, and tries 'fix' this by
decrementing tx_bytes on the transmit path.  But statistics must never
be decremented except due to roll-over; this will thoroughly confuse
user-space.  Also, tx_bytes is only incremented by usbnet in the
completion path.

Fix this by requiring drivers that set FLAG_MULTI_FRAME to set a
tx_bytes delta along with the tx_packets count.

Fixes: beeecd42c3b4 ("net: cdc_ncm/cdc_mbim: adding NCM protocol statistics")
