Correct, AFAIKS.

Exactly, it's not totally wrong what we have now, just some missing part
that needs to be added in the code, while we are counting/updating
these stats.

Yes, something like this should do the trick. We will get the record
entry in the list, so we at least enter the list loop in the
cdev_dt_seq_show().
