This patch supports to readahead more blocks in erofs_readdir(), it can
enhance readdir performance in large direcotry.

readdir test in a large directory which contains 12000 sub-files.

                files_per_second
Before:         926385.54
After:          2380435.562

Meanwhile, let's introduces a new sysfs entry to control readahead
bytes to provide more flexible policy for readahead of readdir().
- location: /sys/fs/erofs/<disk>/dir_ra_bytes
- default value: 16384
- disable readahead: set the value to 0

Can we use DIV_ROUND_UP_POW2 here too? If it's okay,
I will update the patch manually when applied.

Otherwise it looks good to me,
