I mostly meant worker based AIO, yes. I haven't checked how accurately these
are kept for io_uring. I would hope they are...

The thing is that you'd often get completely misleading stats. Some of the IO
will still be done by the backend itself, so there will be a non-zero
value. But it will be a significant undercount, because the asynchronously
executed IO won't be tracked (if worker mode is used).
