Zheng Liang 9eec1d8971 squashfs: provide backing_dev_info in order to disable read-ahead
Commit c1f6925e10 ("mm: put readahead pages in cache earlier") causes
the read performance of squashfs to deteriorate.Through testing, we find
that the performance will be back by closing the readahead of squashfs.

So we want to learn the way of ubifs, provides backing_dev_info and
disable read-ahead

We tested the following data by fio.
squashfs image blocksize=128K
test command:

  fio --name basic --bs=? --filename="/mnt/test_file" --rw=? --iodepth=1 --ioengine=psync --runtime=200 --time_based

  turn on squashfs readahead in 5.10 kernel
  bs(k)      read/randread           MB/s
  4            randread              271
  128          randread              231
  1024         randread              246
  4            read                  310
  128          read                  245
  1024         read                  247

  turn off squashfs readahead in 5.10 kernel
  bs(k)      read/randread           MB/s
  4            randread              293
  128          randread              330
  1024         randread              363
  4            read                  338
  128          read                  360
  1024         read                  365

  turn on squashfs readahead and revert the
  commit c1f6925e1091("mm: put readahead
  pages in cache earlier") in 5.10 kernel
  bs(k)      read/randread           MB/s
