GFS2: Add test for resource group congestion status 

This patch uses information gathered by the recent glock statistics
patch in order to derrive a boolean verdict on the congestion
status of a resource group. This is then used when making decisions
on which resource group to choose during block allocation.

The aim is to avoid resource groups which are heavily contended
by other nodes, while still ensuring locality of access wherever
possible.

Once a reservation has been made in a particular resource group
we continue to use that resource group until a new reservation is
required. This should help to ensure that we do not change resource
groups too often.

/**
* gfs2_rgrp_congested - Use stats to figure out whether an rgrp is congested
* @rgd: The rgrp in question
* @loops: An indication of how picky we can be (0=very, 1=less so)
*
* This function uses the recently added glock statistics in order to
* figure out whether a parciular resource group is suffering from
* contention from multiple nodes. This is done purely on the basis
* of timings, since this is the only data we have to work with and
* our aim here is to reject a resource group which is highly contended
* but (very important) not to do this too often in order to ensure that
* we do not land up introducing fragmentation by changing resource
* groups when not actually required.
*
* The calculation is fairly simple, we want to know whether the SRTTB
* (i.e. smoothed round trip time for blocking operations) to acquire
* the lock for this rgrp's glock is significantly greater than the
* time taken for resource groups on average. We introduce a margin in
* the form of the variable @var which is computed as the sum of the two
* respective variences, and multiplied by a factor depending on @loops
* and whether we have a lot of data to base the decision on. This is
* then tested against the square difference of the means in order to
* decide whether the result is statistically significant or not.
*
* Returns: A boolean verdict on the congestion status
