Subject: [PATCHv1, RFC 25/33] ext4: make ext4_mpage_readpages() hugepage-aware

This patch modifies ext4_mpage_readpages() to deal with huge pages.

We read out 2M at once, so we have to alloc (HPAGE_PMD_NR *
blocks_per_page) sector_t for that. I'm not entirely happy with kmalloc
in this codepath, but don't see any other option.
