The VEB TC stats are currently implemented with separate parsing, instead of using the i40e_stats array and associated helper functions. This is likely because the stats rely on embedding the TC number into the stat name. Update i40e_add_stat_strings to take variadic arguments, and use these to vsnprintf the i40e_stats string as a string containing format specifiers. Create a stats array for the VEB TC related stats, i40e_gstrings_veb_tc_stats, and use this along with the helper functions to remove the specialized boiler plate code. Always call i40e_add_ethtool_stats for both this array and the general VEB stats array. This ensures that we zero out any memory in case it was not zero-allocated for us. This ultimately results in less boiler plate code for the i40e_get_stat_strings and i40e_get_ethtool_stats.

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.
