[dpdk-dev] packet counting of vhost PMD

Hi Yuanhan,

Can I get your opnion about packet counting of vhost PMD?

So far, we may not be able to send all packets at once, the number of
failed packets are counted, and when stats_get() is called, the number
of the packet is filled like below.

        stats->imissed = tx_missed_total;

I wonder whether this should be filled as "stats->oerror"?
It seems all virtual PMD doesn't use 'imissed' except for vhost PMD.
What do you think?

Thanks,
Tetsuya
