This patch fixed the issue that rx/tx bytes overflowed

Can you please describe this logic? (indeed better to describe it in the commit log)

'nes->rx_bytes' is diff in the stats register since last read.
'old_rx_bytes' is the previous stats diff.

Why/how "I40E_RXTX_BYTES_LOW(vsi->old_rx_bytes) > nes->rx_bytes" has a meaning? Isn't this very depends on the read frequency?

I guess I am missing something but please help me understand.

Also can you please confirm the initial value of the "vsi->offset_loaded" is correct.

HIGH/LOW is a little misleading, for 64Bits it sounds like it is getting low 32 bits and high 32 bits, can you please clarify macro masks out 48/16 bits.

'prev' seems better naming than 'old', what do you think renaming 'old_rx_bytes' -> 'prev_rx_bytes' (for all variables)?
