+	Block layer bio throttling support. It can be used to limit
+	the IO rate to a device. IO rate policies are per cgroup and
+	one needs to mount and use blkio cgroup controller for creating
+	cgroups and specifying per device IO rate policies.
+
+	See Documentation/cgroups/blkio-controller.txt for more information.
