Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/6] mm: Make more use of readahead_control [ver #2]


Hi Willy,

Here's a set of patches to expand the use of the readahead_control struct,
essentially from do_sync_mmap_readahead() down.  It's on top of:

	http://git.infradead.org/users/willy/pagecache.git

Also pass file_ra_state into force_page_cache_readahead().

The bugfix for khugepaged.c is included as that code is further changed
here.

David
