Subject: [PATCH] readahead: do not increase nr_requests for root fs block
1abbee
 device
1abbee
1abbee
Having nr_requests can cause system lockups. Arguably, this should get
1abbee
fixed somehow in kernel. For now we just stop changing the
1abbee
value.
1abbee
1abbee
Note that not bumping a value may cause that posix_fadvise call
1abbee
will block in case there is no room in a request queue.
