The patch titled
     readahead: convert ext3/ext4 invocations
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     readahead-convert-ext3-ext4-invocations.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: readahead: convert ext3/ext4 invocations
From: Fengguang Wu <wfg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Convert ext3/ext4 dir reads to use on-demand readahead.

Readahead for dirs operates _not_ on file level, but on blockdev level.  This
makes a difference when the data blocks are not continuous.  And the read
routine is somehow opaque: there's no handy info about the status of current
page.  So a simplified call scheme is employed: to call into readahead
whenever the current page falls out of readahead windows.
