That space is only just long enough for some of the interrupt names!
(The purpose of the layout change was precisely to make that space longer)

Actually if would (probably) be better to rotate the disk stats through
90 degrees, (possibly to only add disks when they have non-zero stats).
This would give space for 4 disks on a 24 line display -  maybe the
disks display could flip depending on the screen height and number of
disks...
