fadvise() allows the user to expand the readahead window to double with
POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL, now. But, in some use cases, it is not that
sufficient and we need to meet the need in a restricted way. We can
control the multiplier value of bdi device readahead between 2 (default)
and 256 for POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL advise option.

Minor things as below comments....
