Let's go with two enums at this moment since your great work is not
tied into the problem. If that becomes really maintaince hole,
we could tidy it up at that time.

I don't have strong opinion about it. I will follow your choice. ;-)

I thought we could handle it with loop

prologue - seq_printf
for (ratio = min, ratio < max; ratio++ )
    seq_printf(s, "%lu", get_stat(ratio)
epilogue - seq_printf
seq_puts(s, "\n");
