Subject: [PATCHv8 3/6] zram: factor out single stream compression

This is preparation patch to add multi stream support to zcomp.

Introduce struct zcomp_strm_single and a set of functions to manage zcomp_strm
stream access. zcomp_strm_single implements single compession stream, same way
as current zcomp implementation. This moves zcomp_strm stream control and
locking from zcomp, so compressing backend zcomp is not aware of required
locking.

Single and multi streams require different locking schemes. Minchan Kim
reported that spinlock-based locking scheme (which is used in multi stream
implementation) has demonstrated a severe perfomance regression for single
compression stream case, comparing to mutex-based.
see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/18/16

The following set of functions added:
- zcomp_strm_single_get()/zcomp_strm_single_put()
  get and put compression stream, implement required locking
- zcomp_strm_single_create()/zcomp_strm_single_destroy()
  create and destroy zcomp_strm_single

New ->strm_get() and ->strm_put() callbacks added to zcomp, which are set to
zcomp_strm_single_get() and zcomp_strm_single_put() during initialisation.
Instead of direct locking and zcomp_strm access from zcomp_strm_get() and
zcomp_strm_put(), zcomp now calls ->strm_get() and ->strm_put()
correspondingly.
