[PATCH 0/4] io-controller: Use names rather than major:minor

[Chad Talbott]

This stack (which includes Gui's patch for per-device weights),
changes the various blkio.* stats to use the disks' names (sda, sdb,
etc.) rather than major:minor pairs when printing statistics.
Additionally setting a per-device policy can be done via the disk's
name.

This has the side effect of fixing the "root cgroup shows no stats"
problem that Ricky mentioned.
