missed_packet_errors are much more commonly reported: linux$ git grep -c '[.>]rx_missed_errors ' -- drivers/ | wc -l 64 linux$ git grep -c '[.>]rx_over_errors ' -- drivers/ | wc -l 37
Plus those drivers are generally more modern than those using rx_over_errors. Since recently merged kernel documentation makes this preference official, let's make ip -s output more informative and let rx_missed_errors take the place of rx_over_errors.
