Bug Description

Some server systems have disk devices named like: /dev/cciss/c0d0. This confuses disk_stat_tests as two different naming conventions are used depending on the filesystem location in which the device is being referred to. For example in /dev it's cciss/c0do, but in /sys/block it's cciss!c0d0. In /proc/partitions it's cciss/c0d0. The script needs to be aware of both these conventions and act accordingly

Adding a checkbox-certification task so we are aware that this is affecting certification some how

I think what should happen is that the script should assume it's being passed the device with the ! in it. Then we can simply sed the ! for a / whenever appropriate (in the situations where we know that is what is expected)

I'll set to Invalid for checkbox-certification, due to its status in checkbox itself (which is where the job lives).
