Subject: [PATCH] v2v: Disable readahead for VMware curl sources too
(RHBZ#1848862).
This appears to be the cause of timeouts during the conversion step
where VMware VCenter server's Tomcat HTTPS server stops responding to
requests (or rather, responds only with 503 errors). The server later
recovers and in fact because of the retry filter the conversion
usually succeeds, but I found that we can avoid the problem by
disabling readahead.
(cherry picked from commit 9f4940068022d4e7abdfea6617b73a2b206f19aa)
