net: Enable 64-bit net device statistics on 32-bit architectures

Use struct rtnl_link_stats64 as the statistics structure.

On 32-bit architectures, insert 32 bits of padding after/before each
field of struct net_device_stats to make its layout compatible with
struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Add an anonymous union in net_device; move
stats into the union and add struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats64.

Add net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64, implementations of which will
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Drivers that implement
this operation must not update the structure asynchronously.

Change dev_get_stats() to call ndo_get_stats64 if available, and to
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Change callers of
dev_get_stats() accordingly.
