Are these values useful for mere mortals trying to create a RAID array
best suited for a specific workload, or are these only useful for people
hacking on the RAID code? If the former, then I'd suggest to use sysfs
(something like /sys/block/<dev>/md/statistics, similar to
/sys/class/net/<dev>/statistics). If the latter, then debugfs would be
better.
