With the introduction of cfq v3 (aka cfq-ts or time sliced cfq), basic io
-priorities are supported for reads on files. This enables users to io nice
-processes or process groups, similar to what has been possible with cpu
-scheduling for ages. This document mainly details the current possibilities
-with cfq; other io schedulers do not support io priorities thus far.
