This patch adds support for an optional stats vq that works similary to the
stats vq provided by virtio-balloon.

The purpose of this change is to allow collection of statistics about working
virtio-blk devices to easily analyze performance without having to tap into
the guest.



Why can't you get the same info from the host?  i.e. read sectors?

Patches to virtio drivers should be preceded by specification updates so that guest driver authors and alternative userspace developers have a solid reference.
