Shaohua Li 6679a90c4b blk-throttle: set default latency baseline for harddisk
hard disk IO latency varies a lot depending on spindle move. The latency
range could be from several microseconds to several milliseconds. It's
pretty hard to get the baseline latency used by io.low.

We will use a different stragety here. The idea is only using IO with
spindle move to determine if cgroup IO is in good state. For HD, if io
latency is small (< 1ms), we ignore the IO. Such IO is likely from
sequential IO, and is helpless to help determine if a cgroup's IO is
impacted by other cgroups. With this, we only account IO with big
latency. Then we can choose a hardcoded baseline latency for HD (4ms,
which is typical IO latency with seek).  With all these settings, the
io.low latency works for both HD and SSD.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
