The cycles 1 is INSIDE the information for the MG preconditioner. This means
that it is using 1 cycle of FULL mg as a PRECONDITIONER inside the outter (FLEXIBLE) GMRES.
If you do not want to use the fgmres acceleration then use -ksp_type richardson
-pc_mg_type multiplicative and it will do the usual v-cycle multigrid until
the ksp convergence tolerance (in your case reduction of residual norm by 1e5)
is achieved. To use a W cycle instead use -pc_mg_cycles 2. (I notice I don't have a
hook for using 2 V or W cycles as a preconditioner)
So in short it is not doing 1 cycle and stopping it is using 1 cycle as
a preconditioner for a usual KSP method.

Sorry the formatting of the output got screwed up in that last release. Here is
what it should look like
