+   Enabling latency measurements has a small impact on performance but

+   to process SCSI commands. Here is an example of the data produced

+   PRE_DEV_DONE refers to internal checks done after execution of a command
+   finished. CSW1 is the context switch that happens after the transport
+   driver received a command and before processing of a command starts.
+   EXEC_WAIT is the time spent in the device handler .exec() method.
