Subject: readahead: call scheme: fix thrashed unaligned read
From: Fengguang Wu <wfg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When doing unaligned/subpages sequential reads, and thrashing happened, it is
possible that (offset == prev_page), besides the normal (offset == prev_page +
1).

We do not have such problem for the state based method.
