[Qemu-block] [PATCH v2 00/17] throttle: Allow I/O bursts for a user-defined period of time

[Alberto Garcia]

Hi,

here's a new version of the series that adds support for performing
I/O bursts for a user-defined period of time. Please follow the link
to the first version of the series for a complete description.

There are two important changes in this version:

a) The previous series was broken because the new parameters were
   missing from qmp-commands.hx. This is fixed now. [patch 10]
b) This series has new tests and documentation [patches 14 and 16]

I also added myself as maintainer of the throttling code [patch 17].

Regards,

Berto

v2:
- Patch 10: Add the new parameters to qmp-commands.hx
- Patch 14: New iotest for this feature
- Patch 15: Fix typo in the API documentation
- Patch 16: New document that explains the throttling infrastructure
- Patch 17: Add myself as maintainer of the throttling code
