You don't need to have private stats structure it is part
of net_device in recent kernels. In fact, since you don't
set .ndo_get_stats, the driver is getting the default function
which prints the values from network_device, not your priv structure.

Also, please consider adding basic ethtool support to
show speed/duplex and driver information.
