Blindly expanding the readahead windows will cause unneccessary
pagecache thrashing and also will introdue the network workload.
We should disable expanding the windows if the readahead is disabled
and also shouldn't expand the windows too much.

Expanding forward firstly instead of expanding backward for possible
sequential reads.

Hi Xiubo,

This change makes it possible for the request to be expanded into the
next block (i.e. it's not rounded _up_ to the next block as the comment
says) because rreq->len is no longer guaranteed to be based off of the
start of the block here.  Previously that was ensured by the preceding
downward expansion.

Correct. I will fix it.

Thanks Ilya.
