"All the other stats are there" is not a strong enough reason
to waste memory on all systems. You need to justify the change
based on how important the counter is. I'd prefer to draw a
line on adding the sysfs stats entries. We don't want to have 
to invent a new stats struct just to avoid having sysfs entries
for each stat.
