Do you get different numbers if you boot with:

elevator=as
elevator=deadline
elevator=cfq (for -mm kernels)
elevator=noop

(You may need to build a kernel with these configured - the symbols are:

CONFIG_IOSCHED_NOOP=y
CONFIG_IOSCHED_AS=y
CONFIG_IOSCHED_DEADLINE=y
CONFIG_IOSCHED_CFQ=y (-mm kernels only)

and can be selected in the 'General Setup' menu - they should all be
built by default unless you've selected EMBEDDED).
