On ext2/ext3, it's expected that several single block metadata reads
can occur when writing to file in the same cgroup (the stack is like
below[1]). The purpose of the "write -> read/write" subtest is to
make sure the larger pwrite is accounted to the correct cgroup, not
necessarily enforce that zero bytes are read in service of the
write. This patch fixes the sub-test in order to tolerate small
reads in 1st cgroup.
