[PATCH 3/7] readahead: combine file_ra_state.prev_index/prev_offset into prev_pos

[Fengguang Wu]

Combine the file_ra_state members
				unsigned long prev_index
				unsigned int prev_offset
into
				loff_t prev_pos

It is more consistent and better supports huge files.

Thanks to Peter for the nice proposal!
