There is something frustrating about the quality and speed of Linux
development. I.e. the quality is too high and the speed is too high, in
other words, I can implement this disk stat feature, but I bet someone else
has already done it and is just about to release his patch to Linus soon...

PS. Btw, whoever is responsible for add_request() the if (disk_index < 4)
should really be if (disk_index < DK_NDRIVE) in there.
