 Would it make sense to add these patches to Fedora's kernel?

 This could help in the area of extending laptop battery life by
 detecting unneccessary disk access. The first step is to have some
 disk I/O to process mapping.

These patches:

a) aren't upstream
b) change the format of /proc/stat
c) change process accounting in an incompatible way

So... no.

 OK, fair enough (I wasn't aware of b) and c)).
 
 Any other way then to achive the stated goals?

I haven't tried, but blktrace?

Very nice! One does get process - I/O bandwidth. No filesystem info,
though, but I shouldn't be greedy ;)

If I find a minute I'll submit a package for this.

Thanks for pushing me to the right track!
