[PATCH 4/6] fuse: rework fuse_readpages()

[Maxim Patlasov]

The patch uses 'nr_pages' argument of fuse_readpages() as the heuristics for
number of page pointers to allocate.

This can be improved further by taking in consideration fc->max_read and gaps
between page indices, but it's not clear wheteher it's worthy or not.
