Ok, googling actually finds a fairly recent patch to fix it
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg70517.html
and several much older "that's not true" comments.
Thanks. I had missed that.
That said, the bugzilla entry you mentioned does mention "can't boot
3.14 now". I'm not sure what the meaning of that sentence is, though.
Does it mean "can't boot 3.14 to test it because the machine is busy",
or is it a typo and really meant 3.15, and that some bootup script
*depended* on readahead()? I don't know. It seems strange.
I think your guess is right, it meant to say "I can't boot it anymore
since I already upgraded to 3.15", because eventually bootup script (if
it is) should have to read IIUC.
