blk-throttle: fix wrong comparation while 'carryover_ios/bytes' is negative
carryover_ios/bytes[] can be negative in the case that ios are dispatched in the slice in advance, and then configuration is updated. For example: 1) set iops limit to 1000, and slice start is 0, slice end is 100ms; 2) current time is 0, and 100 ios are dispatched, those ios will not be throttled, hence io_disp is 100; 3) still at current time 0, update iops limit to 100, then carryover_ios is (0 - 100) = -100; 4) then, dispatch a new io at time 0, the expected result is that this io will wait for 1s. The calculation in tg_within_iops_limit: io_disp = 0; io_allowed = calculate_io_allowed + carryover_ios = 10 + (-100) = -90; io won't be throttled if (io_disp + 1 < io_allowed) passed. Before this patch, in step 4) (io_disp + 1 < io_allowed) is passed, because -90 for unsigned value is very huge, and such io won't be throttled. Fix this problem by checking if 'io/bytes_allowed' is negative first.
