Any hints on what those are? The only ones not in upstream seem mostly
cosmetic to me (not that they aren't a good idea), and changing the
VM save format, which I think should better wait for further changes,
e.g. most of the statistics stuff should not be saved because it is not
and for what I can tell stuff like rx_crc_errors never will be used (not
to mention the "complete" thing which makes no sense at all to store).
I'd suggest a patch, but my local tree is a bit too much of a mess with
all those pending patches that I am too lazy.
