[PATCH 18/33] readahead: initial method - guiding sizes

[Wu Fengguang <wfg@mail.ustc.edu.cn>]

Introduce three guiding sizes for the initial readahead method.
	- ra_pages0:	   recommended readahead on start-of-file
	- ra_expect_bytes: expected read size on start-of-file
	- ra_thrash_bytes: estimated thrashing threshold
