Shuhei Matsumoto 1732428a2b bdevperf: IOPS average by exponential moving average
- Cumulative Moving Average (CMA): average of all data up to current
- Exponential Moving Average (EMA): weighted mean of the previous n
  data and more weight is given to recent
- Simple Moving Average (SMA): unweighted mean of the previous n data

Currently bdevperf support only CMA to know average of IOPS. However
CMA may not be appropriate to know the trend of IOPS. EMA or SMA will
be better to take the role.

The formula of EMA utilized in bdevperf is the following

Multiplier = (2 / (Time periods + 1))
EMA: EMA[n+1] = (IOPS - EMA[n]} x multiplier + EMA[n].

One of the source of the formula is https://github.com/patharanordev/ema
