OK, after doing s/lkm_nullcmd/nosys/, and changing the include files to
be the same as the example lkm, it works.

For my main disk, here are typical #'s:
min = 23, av = 38, max = 58

And for the second disk, which is an old 40M SCSI disk which is only
used for swap.

min = 23, av = 25, max = 59


Are these #'s in ms?
