    [PATCH] fix bogus IO error messages · d49ceaba
    Andrew Morton authored
    Since Jens added the pagecache readahead support in the block layer we've
    been getting bogus IO error messages from buffer.c due to __make_request
    calling end_io against a non-uptodate buffer.
    
    We can just use PF_READAHEAD to shut that up.  But really, we shouldn't even
    have allocated all those pages and submittted the readahead IO if the queue
    was congested.   We have the infrastructure to do that now.
