It may matter in the case of "old nfs-utils" and newer kernel.
Do we want nfs-utils to display 0 for VFSREADPAGES count in that case?
Or would users be more confused by the fact this value is always 0 and
there's no notion of "VFSREADAHEAD" counts in older nfs-utils?
Would users be more surprised by 0 here or the fact there's a more
subtle change in the interface?
I would say the permanent 0 value would be most surprising to users so
I'd shy away from it.
