There is a v2 version of the patch according to the suggestions of Kim 
and Chao Yu, and is merged into the "dev" branch.

This stat is exposed to the sysfs interface. Since Ext4 is using kbytes 
named "lifetime_kbytes_written", we tend to maintain compatibility in 
case some upper level applications are using it. Besides, the 
information is obtained from block layer in the unit of "sectors"(512 
bytes). So it is not necessary to use bytes.
