+ * Historical Service Time
+ *
+ * Keeps a time-weighted exponential moving average of the historical
+ * service time. Estimates future service time based on the historical
+ * service time and the number of outstanding requests.
+ *
+ * Marks paths stale if they have not finished within hst *
+ * num_paths. If a path is stale and unused, we will send a single
+ * request to probe in case the path has improved. This situation
+ * generally arises if the path is so much worse than others that it
+ * will never have the best estimated service time, or if the entire
+ * multipath device is unused. If a path is stale and in use, limit the
+ * number of requests it can receive with the assumption that the path
+ * has become degraded.
+ *
+ * To avoid repeatedly calculating exponents for time weighting, times
+ * are split into HST_WEIGHT_COUNT buckets each (1 >> HST_BUCKET_SHIFT)
+ * ns, and the weighting is pre-calculated.
