This is the 4th version of the adaptive read-ahead patch.
New features:
- detect and prevent most read-ahead thrashing
- support database workload
- support reading backward
- radix tree lookup look-aside cache
It has evolved into a near complete solution over time. I'll split it up and
describe each component at the next time.

Dreams come true :)
The patch can now support 1000 slow reads on 64MB hands down. The newly added
thrashing protection method allows one to force a large read-ahead request size
without causing serious thrashing.
The test data below were collected with readahead_ratio=200.

========
The two thrashing detection/prevention functions are marked with leading
'+++++++'. The overheads are high. But there's good room for speed up.

+ * Adaptive read-ahead.

+ * Good read patterns are compact both in space and time. The read-ahead logic

+ *
+ * It employs two methods to estimate the max thrashing safe read-ahead size:

+ * 2. context based - the fail safe one
+ * The integration of the dual methods has the merit of being agile and robust.
+ * It makes the overall design clean: special cases are handled in general by
+ * the stateless method, leaving the stateful one simple and fast.
+ *
+ * To improve throughput and decrease read delay, the logic 'looks ahead'.
+ * In every read-ahead chunk, it selects one page and tag it with PG_readahead.
+ * Later when the page with PG_readahead is to be read, the logic knows that
+ * it's time to carry out the next read-ahead chunk in advance.

+ *
+ * This function is called when pages in @page_list are to be freed,
+ * it protects ra pages by moving them into @save_list.
+ *
+ * The general idea is to classify pages of a file into random pages and groups
+ * of sequential accessed pages. Random pages and leading segments of
+ * sequential pages are left over, following sequential pages are saved.
+ *
+ * The algorithm must ensure:
+ * - no page is pinned in inactive_list.
+ * - no excessive pages are saved.
+ *
+ * chunk - a list of pages belong to the same file
+ * rs/ra pages - a chunk of pages that was read/to be read sequentially
+ * Detected by ascending index and (almost) non-descending
+ * reference count. rs pages have greater reference count than
+ * following ra pages. A page can be both rs/ra page, which
+ * indicates there are two adjacent readers.
+ * live ra pages - ra pages that have reading in progress
+ * Detected by having leading rs pages(either in page_list or in
+ * inactive_list), or limited ra pages(may be in another zone,
+ * just had their rs pages dropped).
+ * dead ra pages - ra pages that seems to have no imminent reader
+ * Note that they are not necessarily dead: either the cost of
+ * search the leading rs pages or the cost of keeping them in
+ * memory is large, so they are abandoned.
+ * Leading rs pages are detected and handled the same way.
+ *
+ * Live ra pages are saved, pure/leading rs pages and dead ra pages are left
+ * over and eligible for free.
+ *
+ * The rules apply to the following common cases:
+ * keep head back search chunk case
+ * Y ----____________|______________________ Normal
+ * ----------------|----__________________ Normal
+ * |----__________________ Normal
+ * ----------------|---------------------- Normal
+ * |---------------------- Normal
+ * y ________________|______________________ cache miss
+ * |______________________ cache miss
+ * y ________________|_______--------_______ two readers
+ * Y ----____________|_______--------_______ two readers
+ * |_______--------_______ two readers
+ * |----_____------_______ two readers
+ * ----------------|----_____------_______ two readers

+ * ________________|---------------_______ two readers
+ * Y ----____________|---------------_______ two readers
+ * Y ====------------|----__________________ two readers
+ * N |====-----------_______ two readers
+ * N |###======------------- three readers
+ * Y: saved by leading rs pages
+ * y: saved by limited leading ra pages
+ * N: to be activated anyway
+ *
+ * To make it run smooth and fast, ra request boundary must be reserved:
+ * - alloc pages of a chunk from one single zone
+ * - insert pages into lru at one time
+ * - make vmscan code aware of chunk boundaries
+ *
