Some rework of the blkback statics data handling.

Juergen Gross (3):
  xen-blkback: Remove statistics logging on console
  xen-blkback: move statistics data into sub-structure
  xen-blkback: make statistics data persistent across disconnect/connect

The xen-blkback can print I/O statistics data to the console every
10 seconds. This functionality has been present since the introduction
of xen-blkback, but retrieving the data is possible via sysfs, too.

So remove the console logging, as there is no need to have the same
functionality twice.

Move the statistics data into a dedicated new struct xen_blkif_stat.

This is done in preparation of not losing statistics in case of
disconnect/reconnect cycles.

No functional change intended.

Today the statistics data is living in struct xen_blkif_ring only.

This means that a disconnect/connect cycle will reset the data, as the
rings are freed and re-allocated in this case.

Add a struct xen_blkif_stat in struct xen_blkif and sum up the per-ring
data there when freeing the rings, and add those values to the printed
statistics data.
