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.
