I am wondering if /proc/stat_noirqs will be a more descriptive name of the intent of this new procfs file or we should just go with the more generic stat2 name.
The reason why I went with '2' instead of a more rescriptive name was that I think of the call as a drop-in replacement/extention to stat. Therefore the same fields are maintained, otherwise with stat_noirqs I feel like instead of zeroing out, they should just be removed. But otoh, I have no strong objection in renaming either.
