Right, that's why stats from the other host could differ and these
tc stats mentioned by Patrick could be useful.

BTW, current requeuing isn't true requeuing, but we should have some
info about this, so something like this patch is needed.

pkt_sched: Update qdisc requeue stats in dev_requeue_skb()

After the last change of requeuing there is no info about such
incidents in tc stats. This patch updates the counter, but we should
consider this should differ from previous stats because of additional
checks preventing to repeat this. On the other hand, previous stats
didn't include requeuing of gso_segmented skbs.
