I have just tested with replacing -device scsi-generic with -device
scsi-block. Machine boots and seems to work and, low and behold I have disk IO stats again!
# info blockstats
drive-ide2: rd_bytes=152 wr_bytes=0 rd_operations=4 wr_operations=0 flush_operations=0 wr_total_time_ns=0 rd_total_time_ns=95326 flush_total_time_ns=0 rd_merged=0 wr_merged=0 idle_time_ns=258695709709
drive-scsi0: rd_bytes=266729984 wr_bytes=1690120192 rd_operations=15168 wr_operations=6182 flush_operations=0 wr_total_time_ns=512105318651 rd_total_time_ns=61640872040 flush_total_time_ns=0 rd_merged=0 wr_merged=0 idle_time_ns=6506064324

So my question is: Why use scsi-generic instead of scsi-block when
scsi-generic prevents blockstats?
