The current implementation assure that the major and the minor are
coded on one byte. But they are not:
290 as minor in this example is over 1 byte.
So after wondering why all my devices iops weren't correctly stored,
I found out that several points were added for some disks. For
dm-290
it was overriding
252:34
, instead of getting udev stats for252:290
.The solution is here:

The implementation is directly taken from this, fixing my bug.
