Thanks for the suggestion.

Ok.

Do you mean mf_stats now have 7 entries in sysfs?
(total, ignored, failed, delayed, recovered, hard_offline, soft_offline, then recovered = hard_offline + soft_offline)
Or 6 entries ? (in that case, hard_offline = recovered - soft_offline)
It might be simpler to understand for user if total is just the sum of other entries like this RFC,
but I'd like to know other opinions.
