Public bug reported:

I'd like to request that the following trivial patch be backported into
the trusty kernel:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb?id=e66c083aab32842f225bae2a2c30744bf96abaec

Without this patch, it's extremely difficult to debug packet loss issues
on igb interfaces because as soon as you've had one rx drop ethtool will
report constant rx drops (because the counter is not reset).

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
