Subject: [PATCH 19/27] blk-iocost: revamp donation amount determination
iocost has various safety nets to combat inuse adjustment calculation
inaccuracies. With Andy's method implemented in transfer_surpluses(), inuse
adjustment calculations are now accurate and we can make donation amount
determinations accurate too.
* Stop keeping track of past usage history and using the maximum. Act on the
immediate usage information.
* Remove donation constraints defined by SURPLUS_* constants. Donate
whatever isn't used.
* Determine the donation amount so that the iocg will end up with
MARGIN_TARGET_PCT budget at the end of the coming period assuming the same
usage as the previous period. TARGET is set at 50% of period, which is the
previous maximum. This provides smooth convergence for most repetitive IO
patterns.
* Apply donation logic early at 20% budget. There's no risk in doing so as
the calculation is based on the delta between the current budget and the
target budget at the end of the coming period.
* Remove preemptive iocg activation for zero cost IOs. As donation can reach
near zero now, the mere activation doesn't provide any protection anymore.
In the unlikely case that this becomes a problem, the right solution is
assigning appropriate costs for such IOs.
This significantly improves the donation determination logic while also
simplifying it. Now all donations are immediate, exact and smooth.
