A general comment applicable to entire series:

I am wondering why you are referring to the granularity of engine 
activity as "per-engine-class"? The interface supports per-engine (class 
and instance) level activity.

Maybe you could just use per-engine everywhere instead because 
per-engine-class means something else and that's what we export with the 
fdinfo interface.

Thanks,
Umesh
