Last patch detects wrong shrink for some cases, but not all. Let's have
an example. cg1 gets 20% share, cg2 gets 80% share.

disk max bps 100, cgroup can only dispatch 80 bps
cg1 bps = 20, cg2 bps = 80

This should be stable state, but we don't know about it. As we assign
extra bps to queue, we will find cg2 doesn't use its share. So we try to
adjust it, for example, shrink cg2 bps 5. cg1 will then get 25 bps. The
problem is total disk bps is 100, cg2 can't dispatch enough IO and its
bps will drop to 75. From time to time, cg2's share will be adjusted.
Finally cg1 and cg2 will get same bps. The shrink is wrong.

To detect this situation, we record history when a cgroup's share is
shrinked. If we found the cgroup's bps drops, we think the shrink is
wrong and restore the cgroup's share. To avoid fluctuation, we also
disable shrink for a while if a wrong shrink is detected. It's possible,
the shrink is right actually, we will redo the shrink after a while.
