[PATCH 5.3 326/344] mm: Handle MADV_WILLNEED through vfs_fadvise()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>

commit 692fe62433d4ca47605b39f7c416efd6679ba694 upstream.

Currently handling of MADV_WILLNEED hint calls directly into readahead
code. Handle it by calling vfs_fadvise() instead so that filesystem can
use its ->fadvise() callback to acquire necessary locks or otherwise
prepare for the request.
