With the change allowing read-ahead for IOCB_NOWAIT, we changed the
RWF_NOWAIT semantics of only doing cached reads. Since we know have
IOCB_NOIO to manage that specific side of it, just make RWF_NOWAIT
imply IOCB_NOIO as well to restore the previous behavior.

Fixes: 2e85abf053b9 ("mm: allow read-ahead with IOCB_NOWAIT set")

This was a known change with the buffered async read change, but we
didn't have IOCB_NOIO until late in 5.8. Now that bases are synced,
make the change to make RWF_NOWAIT behave like past kernels.

Looks good.
