Subject: [ 003/115] staging: zsmalloc: Fix link error on ARM

3.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Joerg Roedel <joro@...tes.org>

commit d95abbbb291bf5bce078148f53603ce9c0aa1d44 upstream.

Testing the arm chromebook config against the upstream
kernel produces a linker error for the zsmalloc module from
staging. The symbol flush_tlb_kernel_range is not available
there. Fix this by removing the reimplementation of
unmap_kernel_range in the zsmalloc module and using the
function directly. The unmap_kernel_range function is not
usable by modules, so also disallow building the driver as a
module for now.
