For my suggestion in patch 2, this is where you'd need the callback to
reset the SLEEP/WAKE shadow aggregation buckets that the provider is
keeping, since the core just reset the values here. I wonder if you'd
want to pass the &node->avg_bw and &node->peak_bw in with this
callback as well... not sure if that's useful. Something like:

if (p->begin_aggregation)
p->begin_aggregation(node);

Wait I'm confused. The tag is associated with a particular path. But
now aren't you looping over all the other requests and coloring them
with whatever tag this is? Don't you need to store the tag with the
request, and then pass r->tag for each r rather than the tag from
whichever request happened to initiate the re-aggregation?
