Right, thanks.

Okay, makes sense.

That's slightly more costly, but I guess that's fine.

Hm? PageHead()? No. The next page can head or small.
I *guess* we can get away with !PageTail(page + 1)...

We wouldn't see pages with readahead flag set/cleared until huge pages
support in ext4 is enabled at very end of the patchset.

I'll look into it.
