Guenter Roeck d36f07b8e5 block/blk-throttle: Fix throttle slice time for SSDs 
[ Upstream commit f76581f9f1 ]

Commit d61fcfa4bb ("blk-throttle: choose a small throtl_slice for SSD")
introduced device type specific throttle slices if BLK_DEV_THROTTLING_LOW
was enabled. Commit bf20ab538c ("blk-throttle: remove
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING_LOW") removed support for BLK_DEV_THROTTLING_LOW,
but left the device type specific throttle slices in place. This
effectively changed throttling behavior on systems with SSD which now use
a different and non-configurable slice time compared to non-SSD devices.
Practical impact is that throughput tests with low configured throttle
values (65536 bps) experience less than expected throughput on SSDs,
presumably due to rounding errors associated with the small throttle slice
time used for those devices. The same tests pass when setting the throttle
values to 65536 * 4 = 262144 bps.

The original code sets the throttle slice time to DFL_THROTL_SLICE_HD if
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING_LOW is disabled. Restore that code to fix the
problem. With that, DFL_THROTL_SLICE_SSD is no longer necessary. Revert to
the original code and re-introduce DFL_THROTL_SLICE to replace both
DFL_THROTL_SLICE_HD and DFL_THROTL_SLICE_SSD. This effectively reverts
commit d61fcfa4bb ("blk-throttle: choose a small throtl_slice for SSD").

While at it, also remove MAX_THROTL_SLICE since it is not used anymore.

README 

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
