cluster/dht: don't overfill the buffer in readdir(p)
Superflous dentries that cannot be fit in the buffer size provided by
kernel are thrown away by fuse-bridge. This means,
* the next readdir(p) seen by readdir-ahead would have an offset of a
dentry returned in a previous readdir(p) response. When readdir-ahead
detects non-monotonic offset it turns itself off which can result in
poor readdir performance.
* readdirp can be cpu-intensive on brick and there is no point to read
all those dentries just to be thrown away by fuse-bridge.
So, the best strategy would be to fill the buffer optimally - neither
overfill nor underfill.
