I couldn't find any docs explaining the contents of /sys/block//stat,
so I wrote up the following. I'm not completely sure it's accurate - Jens,
could you give a yea or nay on this?In particular, the counts of read/write IOs and read/write sectors are
incremented in different places - it looks like they both increment as the
request is being finished, but I'm not completely sure of that.Cc: Jens Axboe
