Add in some host level sysfs entries: enable_stream_detection - Send RAID 5/6 writes down the normal I/O path. Allow for full-stripe write requests. ssd_smart_path_enabled - Indicates that our Accelerated I/O path is enabled. (AIO). enable_r5_writes - Allow RAID 5 write operations down the AIO path. enable_r6_writes - Allow RAID 6 write operations down the AIO path.
