Current libvirt already lets you choose between cgroup blkio vs. qemu io
throttling.  Compare:

http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsBlockTuning describes
<blkiotune> (implemented via cgroups, on a per-host-block-device basis);
mapped through the virDomainSetBlkioParameters API, or via 'virsh blkiotune'

http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsDisks describes <iotune>
under <disk> (implemented via qemu, on a per-guest-disk basis); mapped
through the virDomainSetBlockIoTune API, or via 'virsh blkdeviotune'

(and yes, we're lousy at using consistently named API)
