block: lift setting the readahead size into the block layer
Drivers shouldn't really mess with the readahead size, as that is a VM concept. Instead set it based on the optimal I/O size by lifting the algorithm from the md driver when registering the disk. Also set bdi->io_pages there as well by applying the same scheme based on max_sectors. To ensure the limits work well for stacking drivers a new helper is added to update the readahead limits from the block limits, which is also called from disk_stack_limits.
