loopback: Implement 64bit stats on 32bit arches

Uses a seqcount_t to synchronize stat producer and consumer, for packets
and bytes counter, now u64 types.

(dropped counter being rarely used, stay a native "unsigned long" type)

No noticeable performance impact on x86, as it only adds two increments
per frame. It might be more expensive on arches where smp_wmb() is not
free.
