The whole chunk tree is read at mount time so we can utilize readahead to get the tree blocks to memory before we read the items. The idea is from Robbie, but instead of updating search slot readahead, this patch implements the chunk tree readahead manually from nodes on level 1. We've decided to do specific readahead optimizations and then unify them under a common API so we don't break everything by changing the search slot readahead logic. Higher chunk trees grow on large filesystems (many terabytes), and prefetching just level 1 seems to be sufficient. Provided example was from a 200TiB filesystem with chunk tree level 2.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
