Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Revert "page cache: fix page_cache_next/prev_miss off by one"

This reverts commit 9425c591e06a9ab27a145ba655fb50532cf0bcc9

The reverted commit fixed up routines primarily used by readahead code
such that they could also be used by hugetlb.  Unfortunately, this
caused a performance regression as pointed out by the Closes: tag.

The hugetlb code which uses page_cache_next_miss will be addressed in
a subsequent patch.

Reported-by: kernel test robot <oliver.sang@...el.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-lkp/202306211346.1e9ff03e-oliver.sang@intel.com
Fixes: 9425c591e06a ("page cache: fix page_cache_next/prev_miss off by one")
