Subject: [PATCHv6 1/6] zram: introduce compressing backend abstraction

ZRAM performs direct LZO compression algorithm calls, making it the one and
only option. Introduce compressing backend abstraction zcomp in order to
support multiple compression algorithms with the following set of operations:
        .create
        .destroy
        .compress
        .decompress

Schematically zram write() usually contains the following steps:
0) preparation (decompression of partioal IO, etc.)
1) lock buffer_lock mutex (protects meta compress buffers)
2) compress (using meta compress buffers)
3) alloc and map zs_pool object
4) copy compressed data (from meta compress buffers) to object allocated by 3)
5) free previous pool page, assign a new one
6) unlock buffer_lock mutex

As we can see, compressing buffers must remain untouched from 1) to 4),
because, otherwise, concurrent write() can overwrite data. At the same time,
zram_meta must be aware of a) specific compression algorithm memory requirements
and b) necessary locking to protect compression buffers. To remove requirement
a) new struct zcomp_strm introduced, which contains a compress/decompress
`buffer' and compression algorithm `private' part. While struct zcomp implements
zcomp_strm stream handling and locking by means of get() and put() semantics and
removes requirement b) from zram meta. zcomp ->create() and ->destroy(),
respectively, allocate and deallocate algorithm specific zcomp_strm `private'
part.

Every zcomp has zcomp stream and mutex to protect its compression stream. Stream
usage semantics remains the same -- only one write can hold stream lock and use
its buffers. zcomp_strm_get() turns caller into exclusive user of a stream
(holding stream mutex until zram put stream), and zcomp_strm_put() makes zcomp
stream available (unlock the stream mutex). Hence no concurrent write
(compression) operations possible at the moment.

Usage examples:

	comp = zcomp_create(NAME) /* NAME e.g. "lzo" */

which initialises compressing backend if requested algorithm is supported.

Compress:
	zstrm = zcomp_strm_get(comp)
	zcomp_compress(comp, zstrm, src, &dst_len)
	[..] /* copy compressed data */
	zcomp_strm_put(comp, zstrm)

Decompress:
	zcomp_decompress(comp, src, src_len, dst);

Free compessing backend and its zcomp stream:
	zcomp_destroy(comp)
