This is a test to verify io.latency is working properly. It does this
by first running a fio job by itself to figure out how fast it runs.
Then we calculate some thresholds, set up 2 cgroups, a fast and a slow
cgroup, and then run the same job in both groups simultaneously. We
should see the slow group get throttled until the first cgroup is able
to finish, and then the slow cgroup will be allowed to finish.
