Change the document about iowait

The iowait is not reliable by reading from /proc/stat, so this
method to get iowait is not suggested. And we mark it in the
document.

-- iowait: waiting for I/O to complete
+- iowait: In a word, iowait stands for waiting for I/O to complete. But there
+  are several problems:
+  1. Cpu will not wait for I/O to complete, iowait is the time that a task is
+     waiting for I/O to complete. When cpu goes into idle state for
+     outstanding task io, another task will be scheduled on this CPU.
+  2. In a multi-core CPU, the task waiting for I/O to complete is not running
+     on any CPU, so the iowait of each CPU is difficult to calculate.
+  3. The value of iowait field in /proc/stat will decrease in certain
+     conditions.
+  So, the iowait is not reliable by reading from /proc/stat.
