[XFS] Increase the size of the buffer holding the local inode cluster
list, to increase our potential readahead window and in turn improve bulkstat performance. SGI-PV: 944409 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:26607a Signed-off-by: Nathan Scott <nathans@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tim Shimmin <tes@sgi.com>
