-	 * The delta_bw is used when increasing the bandwidth so that we

-	 * continuously.
-	 *
-	 * For ex: consider cur_bw = 90MBps, user_bw = 100MBps and if

+	 * Always increase throttling if current bandwidth is above the
+	 * target set by user.
+	 * But avoid thrashing up and down on every poll by checking
+	 * whether a decrease in throttling is likely to push the group
+	 * back over target. E.g. if currently throttling to 30% of bandwidth
+	 * on a system with 10% granularity steps, check whether moving to
+	 * 40% would go past the limit by multiplying current bandwidth by
+	 * "(30 + 10) / 30".
