The subject line should be

"st: implement tape statistics" to fit the general scheme.

Tested-by is usually used for other testers, not the patch author.

Where is the description of what these staistics do and what you need

A lot of the code seems to be duplicates of what we do in block
layer statistics, I wonder if there is any way to share that code?
