Hmm. I reverted the change in locktorture.c , and I see the same
numbers when I boot the kernel with

        locktorture.verbose=1 locktorture.torture_type=rwsem_lock

parameters.

        Writes:  Total: 2  Max/Min: 0/0   Fail: 0
        Reads :  Total: 2  Max/Min: 0/0   Fail: 0
        
"Total" doesn't grow. Looks like something is wrong with locktorture.
I'll try to re-check...

Oleg.
