Description
19.07-SNAPSHOT
GL-B1300
I want to monitor /dev/mtdblock11, but the plugin only sees disk-mtdblock10 and none of the other partitions. Is it because mtdblock11 is jffs2?

option enable '1'
option IgnoreSelected '0'
option Disks 'mtdblock0 mtdblock1 mtdblock2 mtdblock3 mtdblock4 mtdblock5 mtdblock6 mtdblock7 mtdblock8 mtdblock9 mtdblock10 mtdblock11'

Research direction
Start at the collectd-mod-disk plugin entry point and reproduce the reported configuration with the /dev/mtdblock11 and /proc/partitions data shown here. Compare how the plugin handles mtdblock10, mtdblock11, and the jffs2-mounted overlay; the issue is done when the omission is explained and the configured partition is handled consistently with the others.
