Oops, forgot to update the changelog there.  Yes, that's exactly what it
changed to.  That discussion was here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20200219144117.GP24185@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

... and then Christoph pointed out the iterators weren't really adding
much value at that point, so they got deleted.  New changelog for
this patch:

btrfs: Convert from readpages to readahead
  
Implement the new readahead method in btrfs.  Add a readahead_page_batch()
to optimise fetching a batch of pages at once.
