Joseph, please have a look at the IO module in ganglia-modules-linux:
https://github.com/ganglia/ganglia-modules-linux
It is based on a patch JB Kim contributed for Ganglia 3.0.x, I converted
it to a module
It currently does aggregate IO stats from all disks, it could be
enhanced to work on a per-disk basis
