[lvm-devel] [PATCH v2] Use readahead of underlying device and not default (smaller) one.

When we are stacking LV over device, which has for some reason
increased read_ahead (e.g. MD RAID), the read_ahead hint
for libdevmapper is wrong (it is zero).
If the calculated read_ahead hint is zero, patch uses read_ahead of underlying device
(if first segment is PV) when setting DM_READ_AHEAD_MINIMUM_FLAG.
Because we are using dev-cache, it also store this value to cache for future use
(if several LVs are over one PV, BLKRAGET is called only once for underlying device.)
This should fix all the reamining problems with readahead mismatch reported
for DM over MD configurations (and similar cases).
