readahead: MIN_RA_PAGES/MAX_RA_PAGES macros
Define two convenient macros for read-ahead: - MAX_RA_PAGES: rounded down counterpart of VM_MAX_READAHEAD - MIN_RA_PAGES: rounded _up_ counterpart of VM_MIN_READAHEAD Note that the rounded up MIN_RA_PAGES will work flawlessly with _large_ page sizes like 64k.
