The attached patch does the following three things:
(1) Makes the functions in mm/readahead.c only use struct file* to pass to
readpage(). address_mapping* and file_ra_state* are used instead to keep
track of readahead stuff.
(2) Adds a new function do_generic_mapping_read() that is similar to
do_generic_file_read(), except that it uses a mapping pointer and a
readahead state pointer to access a file. The file* is only used to pass
to readpage().
(3) Turns do_generic_file_read() into an inline function in linux/fs.h that
simply wraps do_generic_mapping_read().
This should mean that it is no longer necessary to have a struct file to
access a file in this manner. Just an inode or address space should be
sufficient.
It also means alternate read-ahead structures can be maintained.
It may be worth adding a read-ahead struct init function too.
