[PATCH 1/2] latencystats: fix receive sample MP issues

[PATCH 1/2] latencystats: fix receive sample MP issues

[Stephen Hemminger]

The receive callback was not safe with multiple queues.
If one receive queue callback decides to take a sample it
needs to add that sample and do atomic update to the previous
TSC sample value. Add a new lock for that.

Also, add code to handle TSC wraparound in comparison.
Perhaps this should move to rte_cycles.h?
