Regardless, I think this is something that userspace _can_
take care of reasonably and therefore has no buisness in the
kernel.

We do not duplicate functionality that is already possible
_unless_ it is incredibly difficult for userland to do so.
And in this case I do not think it is difficult for userland
to interpret the counters in the way you want it to.

So, major NACK on this stuff.
