Subject: [PATCH 1/3] zsmalloc: support zsmalloc to ARM, MIPS, SUPERH

zsmalloc uses set_pte and __flush_tlb_one for performance but
many architecture don't support it. so this patch removes
set_pte and __flush_tlb_one which are x86 dependency.
Instead of it, use local_flush_tlb_kernel_range which are available
by more architectures. It would be better than supporting only x86
and last patch in series will enable again with supporting
local_flush_tlb_kernel_range in x86.

About local_flush_tlb_kernel_range,
If architecture is very smart, it could flush only tlb entries related to vaddr.
If architecture is smart, it could flush only tlb entries related to a CPU.
If architecture is _NOT_ smart, it could flush all entries of all CPUs.
So, it would be best to support both portability and performance.

Need double check about supporting local_flush_tlb_kernel_range
in ARM, MIPS, SUPERH maintainers. And I will Ccing unicore32 and
score maintainers because arch directory in those arch have
local_flush_tlb_kernel_range, too but I'm very unfamiliar with those
architecture so pass it to maintainers.
I didn't coded up dumb local_flush_tlb_kernel_range which flush
all cpus. I expect someone need ZSMALLOC will implement it easily in future.
Seth might support it in PowerPC. :)
