Subject: [PATCH] readahead: Correct the start and size in ondemand_readahead()
Date:   Tue, 27 Jun 2023 13:07:02 +0800

The commit
9425c591e06a ("page cache: fix page_cache_next/prev_miss off by one")
updated the page_cache_next_miss() to return the index beyond
range.

But it breaks the start/size of ra in ondemand_readahead() because
the offset by one is accumulated to readahead_index. As a consequence,
not best readahead order is picked.

Tracing of the order parameter of filemap_alloc_folio() showed:
     page order    : count     distribution
        0          : 892073   |                                        |
        1          : 0        |                                        |

Fix the issue by set correct start/size of ra in ondemand_readahead().
