This accounting code is effectively a no-op by default (CONFIG_READAHEAD_STATS=n).
It's expected to be runtime reset and enabled before using:
echo 0 > /debug/readahead/stats # reset counters
echo 1 > /debug/readahead/stats_enable
# run test workload
echo 0 > /debug/readahead/stats_enable
Example output:
(taken from a fresh booted NFS-ROOT console box with rsize=524288)
$ cat /debug/readahead/stats

The two most important columns are
- io number of readahead IO
- io_size average readahead IO size
