    In order to run qdisc's without locking statistics and estimators
    need to be handled correctly.
    
    To resolve bstats make the statistics per cpu. And because this is
    only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not
    the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu
    stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag.
    
    Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per
    second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated
    to use the per cpu statistics.
