This series introduces a new ethtool statistic, link_down_events,
to both the ixgbe and ice drivers. The purpose of this counter is
to track the number of times the network link transitions from up to
down.
This statistic can help diagnose issues related to link stability,
such as port flapping or unexpected link drops. It is exposed via
ethtool.
Patch 1 adds this functionality to the ice driver, while patch 2 adds
the same support to the ixge driver.
