blk-throttle: choose a small throtl_slice for SSD

The throtl_slice is 100ms by default. This is a long time for SSD, a lot of IO can run. To make cgroups have smoother throughput, we choose a small value (20ms) for SSD. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <[email protected]>
