*Resend with hopefully non mangled patches* Hi, we adopted fio as a very good tool back at version 1.57. It suited our needs in replacing iozone with a more modern and more capable benchmarking tool. As it is usually we needed a few little extensions to support the old use cases we wanted to migrate to the new benchmark. Also we found a few issues in the fio code that we had to fix. All that happened a long time back and we always wanted to cotribute our changes to the project which after a loooong legal process now is finally possible. To make things worse the code was affected by some bit rot due to that legal waiting time which in turn stalled me making it ready for submission again. I'm happy that I finally found some time to update the patches to match to the current fio git. It passed my 18 test cases which are based on the examples delivered with fio new for the new functionality added.
