The Tx queue stats are being reported incorrectly due to a workaround
for ring counters sometimes being reported as zero.  When a queue is
stopped and started, the ring counter is reset to zero.  The workaround
interprets the zero as incorrect, and sets the reported ring count as
the previously read value (from before the queue being restared).  This
shows up as negative counters in testpmd's "show fwd stats" command.
The fix clears the prev counter for the queue when the queue is started.
