  Description     : additional statistical counters for atop

 This patch takes care that statistical counters are added to the
 process-administration (task_struct) and that these counters are
 incremented per process.  The additional counters are shown via the
 file /proc/pid/stat as a second line of counters. When this patch is
 installed, atop automatically shows another layout for the generic
 screen (including disk- and network-transfers for active processes).
 However for terminated process these additional counters are not
 shown, because the conventional layout of the process-accounting
 record has not been adapted.
