Jens' reply suggest he likes this interface, but I have to say I
already hated it with a passion for the merges - overloading a
previously boolean file with a numberic value is not exactly an
intuitive interface. Is a new sysfs file for this really a problem?

I understand why all these conditions are there, because basically
they'd break the current code to collect stats. But I think this needs
a comment explaining why they are there, and why the statistics are
still useful without the requests matching them.

BLK_FEAT_IO_STAT is in ->features because drivers need to opt into it,
but BLK_FEAT_PASSTHROUGH_STAT is purely a flag triggered by sysfs and
should go into ->flags.
