Here is a mistake, the right word should be:
tg_within_iops_limit is after "tg_within_bps_limit(tg, bio, bps_limit) &&"
and will not be called if tg_within_bps_limit return *false*.

In C language, When executing "if (expression1 && expression2)" and
expression1 return false, the expression2 may not be executed.
For "tg_within_bps_limit(tg, bio, bps_limit, &bps_wait) &&
tg_within_iops_limit(tg, bio, iops_limit, &iops_wait))", if bps is
limited, tg_within_bps_limit will return false and
tg_within_iops_limit will not be called. So even bps and iops are
both limited, iops_wait will not be calculated and is zero here.
So wait time of bps is always returned.
