------------------------------------------------------
Subject: readahead: convert filemap invocations
From: Fengguang Wu <wfg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Convert filemap reads to use on-demand readahead.

The new call scheme is to
- call readahead on non-cached page
- call readahead on look-ahead page
- update prev_index when finished with the read request
