To be honest, I'm not 100% sure what the correct semantics here should
be. I thought it might be less misleading if we included ring buffer
related misses as well.

Regardless, I am ok with either.

I think the feedback from the last patchset was that we want to keep
the misses unified.

Peter, do you have any thoughts?

Thanks,
Daniel
