[dm-devel] [PATCH] Add I/O stats for DM devices

[Kevin Corry]

Got a request to add I/O statistics for DM devices, so they will show up
when running the iostat command, so I wrote up this patch. The code was
taken from the various MD personalities. As such, it only keeps track of
the number of reads/writes and the number of sectors read/written. It
doesn't keep track of any of the time-based measurements. See
struct disk_stats in include/linux/genhd.h for more details.

Add I/O statistics for Device-Mapper devices. Only keeps track of count and
size of I/Os, not completion times. Patch is against 2.6.12.
