Vincent Whitchurch e994f5b677 squashfs: cache partial compressed blocks
Before commit 93e72b3c61 ("squashfs: migrate from ll_rw_block
usage to BIO"), compressed blocks read by squashfs were cached in the page
cache, but that is not the case after that commit.  That has lead to
squashfs having to re-read a lot of sectors from disk/flash.

For example, the first sectors of every metadata block need to be read
twice from the disk.  Once partially to read the length, and a second time
to read the block itself.  Also, in linear reads of large files, the last
sectors of one data block are re-read from disk when reading the next data
block, since the compressed blocks are of variable sizes and not aligned
to device blocks.  This extra I/O results in a degrade in read performance
of, for example, ~16% in one scenario on my ARM platform using squashfs
with dm-verity and NAND.

Since the decompressed data is cached in the page cache or squashfs'
internal metadata and fragment caches, caching _all_ compressed pages
would lead to a lot of double caching and is undesirable.  But make the
code cache any disk blocks which were only partially requested, since
these are the ones likely to include data which is needed by other file
system blocks.  This restores read performance in my test scenario.

The compressed block caching is only applied when the disk block size is
equal to the page size, to avoid having to deal with caching sub-page
reads.
