I guess this testpmd update is not directly related to this patch, but
to protect testpmd against value overflow? Can this be another patch?

But not having this previously means all VF stats were wrong previously,
not only extended ones, also basic ones. And not not wrong with small
difference, this should give a big difference in the stats.

I am suspicious about this part, because if this is the case, I would
expect this should be detected earlier.

I have not traced the code, but is there any chance that
"eth_stats_offset" has been used by other end of the admin command?

I can see this is the reason of the defect mentioned in the commit log.
Instead of using newly acquired stats as offset, using old values...
