Better to move these declarations into PATCH 1/2.

Merge these two judgements:
for (blkno = start; blkno < start + nrpages && blkno < sit_blk_cnt; blkno++)

'Break' seems more suitable.

Here may be 'Continue'.

Put page here seems not a good idea, otherwise all your work may be in vain.

In fact, you know how many blocks that you want to read(SIT_BLK_CNT(sbi)),
so here sit_blk_cnt is more suitable than a MAX one, and it also can make
the logic of ra_sit_pages more simple.

Using do {...} while(start_blk < sit_blk_cnt) rather than the so big upstream goto.
