Btrfs: don't always do readahead
Our readahead is sort of sloppy, and really isn't always needed. For example if ls is doing a stating ls (which is the default) it's going to stat in non-disk order, so if say you have a directory with a stupid amount of files, readahead is going to do nothing but waste time in the case of doing the stat. Taking the unconditional readahead out made my test go from 57 minutes to 36 minutes. This means that everywhere we do loop through the tree we want to make sure we do set path->reada properly, so I went through and found all of the places where we loop through the path and set reada to 1. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>
