I'll go you one better ... how about we do this instead:

static inline struct page *readahead_page(struct readahead_control *rac)
{
        struct page *page;

        BUG_ON(rac->_batch_count > rac->_nr_pages);
        rac->_nr_pages -= rac->_batch_count;
        rac->_index += rac->_batch_count;
        rac->_batch_count = 0;

        if (!rac->_nr_pages)
                return NULL;

        page = xa_load(&rac->mapping->i_pages, rac->_index);
        VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageLocked(page), page);
        rac->_batch_count = hpage_nr_pages(page);

        return page;
}

#define readahead_for_each(rac, page)                                   \
        while ((page = readahead_page(rac)))

No more readahead_next() to forget to add to filesystems which don't use
the readahead_for_each() iterator.  Ahem.
