In filemap_read(), 'ra->prev_pos' is set to 'iocb->ki_pos + copied',
while it should be 'iocb->ki_ops'. For consequence,
folio_mark_accessed() will not be called for 'fbatch.folios[0]' since
'iocb->ki_pos' is always equal to 'ra->prev_pos'.

It seems tidier, but does it matter? If copied==0 we're going to break
out and return -EFAULT anyway?
Hi,

Please notice that I set 'prev_ops' to 'ki_pos' first here, instead of
'ki_pos + copied'.

Thanks,
