    net: make ndo_get_stats64 a void function

    The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
    in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
    return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
    incorrectly assume that the return value was used.

    Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.

This seems to be fine for all prior Linux versions as well.
