> I was waiting to implement it across the drivers when I knew it was going to be merged to master. It shouldn't break anything that's currently using ethdev stats and should be relatively straight forward to implement for the drivers. Does it makes sense to add it into drivers now or wait for the next open DPDK window?

It's better to change API only when it is used by some drivers.
We can wait the release 2.3 to integrate it.
