This patch adds an option to have per-port vlan stats instead of the default global stats. The option can be set only when there are no port vlans in the bridge since we need to allocate the stats if it is set when vlans are being added to ports (and respectively free them when being deleted). Also bump RTNL_MAX_TYPE as the bridge is the largest user of options. The current stats design allows us to add these without any changes to the fast-path, it all comes down to the per-vlan stats pointer which, if this option is enabled, will be allocated for each port vlan instead of using the global bridge-wide one.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
