[RFC PATCH] blk-iocost: Optimize the ioc_refreash_vrate() function

From: Baolin Wang
Date: Sat Nov 28 2020 - 21:41:40 EST


The ioc_refreash_vrate() will only be called in ioc_timer_fn() after
starting a new period or stopping the period.

So when starting a new period, the variable 'pleft' in ioc_refreash_vrate()
is always the period's time, which means if the abs(ioc->vtime_err)
is less than the period's time, the vcomp is 0, and we do not need
compensate the vtime_rate in this case, just set it as the base vrate
and return.

When stopping the period, the ioc->vtime_err will be cleared to 0,
and we also do not need to compensate the vtime_rate, just set it as
the base vrate and return.
