drbd: don't let application IO pre-empt resync too often
Before, application IO could pre-empt resync activity for up to hardcoded 20 seconds per resync request. A very busy server could throttle the effective resync bandwidth down to one request per 20 seconds. Now, we only let application IO pre-empt resync traffic while the current resync rate estimate is above c-min-rate. If you disable the c-min-rate throttle feature (set c-min-rate = 0), application IO will no longer pre-empt resync traffic at all.
