Subject: [PATCH] erofs: enable large folio in device-based mode

Enable large folio in device-based mode. Then the radahead routine will
pass down large folio containing multiple pages.

Enable this feature for non-compressed format for now, until the
compression part supports large folio later.

I have tested it under workload of Linux compiling. I know it's not a
perfect workload testing this feature, because large folio is less
likely hit in this case since source files are generally small. But I
indeed observed large folios (e.g. 16 pages) by peeking
readahead_count(rac) in erofs_readahead().
