AgAGkgjwepth, there's a gcc plugin that makes all uninitialized stack
variables zero now, and so I never see these things anymore. :(

Thanks for catching this.

Yeah, I think this can be done without making the function too
incohesive.

It did in the previous revision, but Dave pointed out that sz_recs then
becomes quite large on a system with 64k pages...

65536 bytes / 16 bytes per inobt record = 4096 records
4096 records * 64 inodes per record = 262144 inodes
262144 inodes * 512 bytes per inode = 128MB of inode readahead

I could extend the comment to explain why we don't use PAGE_SIZE...

/*
* Note: We hardcode 4096 here (instead of, say, PAGE_SIZE) because we want to
* constrain the amount of inode readahead to 16k inodes regardless of CPU:
*
* 4096 bytes / 16 bytes per inobt record = 256 inobt records
* 256 inobt records * 64 inodes per record = 16384 inodes
* 16384 inodes * 512 bytes per inode(?) = 8MB of inode readahead
*/
