Useful to verify that things are working the way they should.
Reading the file will return number of kb written to each
stream. Writing the file will reset the statistics. No care
is taken to ensure that we don't race on updates.

This is one of the few places where there is an arbitrary limit on the
number of stream IDs, which is strange because it doesn't correspond to
any limit in a struct field or the physical hardware or external protocol...

Bumping the stream_writes[] stats array up to 16 wouldn't make any
significant difference to the size of struct request_queue.

This should probably limit the value returned from bio_stream(), and put values
>= WRITE_LIFE_NR into an "overflow" bucket or similar?  At some point in the
future this could be made more flexible, based on the actual usage, but at
least the limitation on the implementation isn't something arbitrary like stats.

For my testing, it was actually 16. Until we enable the use of more
than 4 streams, I think we should limit it to just 4. But yes, cheap
to change.

Agree, we need to either check here or ensure that bio_stream() never returns
anything above WRITE_LIFE_EXTREME. I'll make that change.
