The patch collapses in the internal zsmalloc_int.h into
the zsmalloc-main.c file.
This is done in preparation for the promotion to mm/ where
separate internal headers are discouraged.

This patchset provides page mapping via the page table.
On some archs, most notably ARM, this method has been
demonstrated to be faster than copying.
The logic controlling the method selection (copy vs page table)
is controlled by the definition of USE_PGTABLE_MAPPING which
is/can be defined for any arch that performs better with page
table mapping.

Because we use per-cpu mapping areas shared among the
pools/users, we can't allow mapping in interrupt context
because it can corrupt another users mappings.

firstpage already has precedent and meaning the first page
of a zspage. In the case of the copy mapping functions,
it is the first of a pair of pages needing to be mapped.
This patch just renames the firstpage argument to "page" to
avoid confusion.

This patch improves mapping performance in zsmalloc by getting
usage information from the user in the form of a "mapping mode"
and using it to avoid unnecessary copying for objects that span
pages.

This patch replaces the page table assisted object mapping
method, which has x86 dependencies, with a arch-independent
method that does a simple copy into a temporary per-cpu
buffer.
While a copy seems like it would be worse than mapping the pages,
tests demonstrate the copying is always faster and, in the case of
running inside a KVM guest, roughly 4x faster.

ZSMALLOC is tristate, but the code has no MODULE_LICENSE and since it
depends on GPL-only symbols it cannot be loaded as a module. This in
turn breaks zram which now depends on it. I assume it's meant to be
Dual BSD/GPL like the other z-stuff.
There is also no module_exit, which will make it impossible to unload.
Add the appropriate module_init and module_exit declarations suggested
by comments.

This patch fixes an uninitialized variable warning in
alloc_zspage(). It also fixes the secondary issue of
prev_page leaving scope on each loop iteration. The only
reason this ever worked was because prev_page was occupying
the same space on the stack on each iteration.

We should use unsigned long as handle instead of void * to avoid any
confusion. Without this, users may just treat zs_malloc return value as
a pointer and try to deference it.
This patch passed compile test(zram, zcache and ramster) and zram is
tested on qemu.

* from v2
- remove hval pointed out by Nitin
- based on next-20120607
* from v1
- change zcache's zv_create return value

zspage_order defines how many pages are needed to make a zspage.
So _order_ is rather awkward naming. It already deceive Jonathan
- http://lwn.net/Articles/477067/
" For each size, the code calculates an optimum number of pages (up to 16)"
Let's change from _order_ to _pages_ and some function names.

This patch moves where max_zspage_order is declared and
changes its meaning. "Order" typically implies 2^order
of something; however, it is currently being used as the
"maximum number of single pages in a zspage". To add clarity,
ZS_MAX_ZSPAGE_ORDER is now used to calculate ZS_MAX_PAGES_PER_ZSPAGE,
which is 2^ZS_MAX_ZSPAGE_ORDER and is the upper bound on the number
of pages in a zspage.

linux/vmalloc.h added to zsmalloc-main.c to resolve implicit
declaration errors.
X86 dependency added to zsmalloc and dependent drivers zcache and zram.
This X86 only requirement is not ideal. Working to find portable
functions for __flush_tlb_one and set_pte.

This patch creates a new memory allocation library named
zsmalloc.
NOTE: zsmalloc currently depends on SPARSEMEM for the MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS
value needed to determine the format of the object handle. There may
be a better way to do this. Feedback is welcome.
