+Generate linear IO cost model coefficients used by the blk-iocost
+controller.  If the target raw testdev is specified, destructive tests
+are performed against the whole device; otherwise, on
+./iocost-coef-fio.testfile.  The result can be written directly to

+On high performance devices, --numjobs > 1 is needed to achieve
