Jakub Kicinski 855631afe0 selftests: drv-net: let ethtool stats settle before reading
Some devices refresh the statistics exposed via ethtool only
periodically, every stats-block-usecs (as reported by ethtool -c).
ethtool_std_stats and ethtool_rmon sample the counters immediately
after generating traffic, so on such devices they can read stale
values and fail with a delta short of the packets just sent.

Add a hw_stats_settle() helper which sleeps for 1.25x the configured
stats-block-usecs (defaulting to 20ms when the device reports no, or
a zero, period). Use it for ethtool std stats and RMON.
The 1.25x/20msec heuristic matches what the Python tests do.
