The reason why I went with '2' instead of a more rescriptive name was that I think of the call as a drop-in replacement/extention to stat. Therefore the same fields are maintained, otherwise with stat_noirqs I feel like instead of zeroing out, they should just be removed.
But otoh, I have no strong objection in renaming either.
Thanks, Davidlohr
