[LTP] [PATCH] ioctl06: fix BLKRASET failures in small sectors

ioctl() failed to set readahead area in smaller sectors on ppc/aarch64
(PAGESIZE == 65536kB) arch, that's because the minimal readahead pages
aligned by '(arg * 512) / PAGE_SIZE'. See:
block/ioctl.c:
case BLKRASET:
case BLKFRASET:
if(!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))
return -EACCES;
bdev->bd_bdi->ra_pages = (arg * 512) / PAGE_SIZE;
return 0;
In this patch, shift the test value with increase by 512 bytes
(base on: blockdev(8) --setra).
