I think there was general consensus that the status=noinfo should be applied

I'll look at that this evening.

I changed things a bit in the attached patch.
I used 'status=none' rather than 'status=noinfo',
to make it obvious all stderr messages were being suppressed.
Also, I kept the bitmask nature of the existing code
to make it more consistent and extendible.

cheers,
Pádraig.

Subject: [PATCH] dd: add support for status=none to suppress all info to
 stderr

* src/dd.c (STATUS_NONE): A new bitmask combining all STATUS_
options, thus used to suppress all informational output.
(struct symbol_value statuses): Expose the "none" option,
corresponding to the STATUS_NONE bitmask above.
(print_stats): Return early if STATUS_NONE is specified.
Also move the call to gethrxtime() down so that it's only
called when needed.
(usage): Describe the new options.
* doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* tests/dd/misc.sh: Ensure the new option works.
