I'd make the special case of the first element a bit more obvious by
using "backing_idx == 0" rather than the negation sign used usually with
pointers.

As an additional thought. The stats are now extermely long for VMs with
a long backing chain and few of the stats tend to be 0 always. We could
start skipping them perhaps (at least for the non-top, devices)

ACK.
