Add a new sysctl node 'dev.bfe.N.stats' that shows various MAC
  counters for Rx/Tx statistics. Various counters in ifnet is also
  updated with these hardware counters.
Can we not add stuff like that spews output to the console? I much prefer to see a tool that dumps the stats and if you need to get to them w/o the tool then consider adding a ddb cmd. We're just about to get the ability to add ddb cmds in loadable modules which was the only reason not to leverage ddb for stuff like this.

I see this done in several drivers and hate it. I'd like to see this approach not be copied in the future.
