There is logic to keep cgroups that haven't done a lot of IO in the most recent scale window from being punished for over-active higher priority groups. However for things like ssd's where the windows are pretty short we'll end up with small numbers of samples, so 5% of samples will come out to 0 if there aren't enough. Make the floor 1 sample to keep us from improperly bailing out of scaling down.
