Subject: [PATCH v2] zram: auto add/del devices on demand

From: Timofey Titovets <nefelim4ag@...il.com>

This add supporting of autochange count of zram devices on demand, like 
loop devices;
This working by following rules:
	- Always save minimum devices count specified by num_device (can be 
specified while kernel module loading)
	- if last device already using add new device;
	- if last and prelast devices is free - delete last zram device;

Signed-off-by: Timofey Titovets <nefelim4ag@...il.com>

 From v1 -> v2:
Delete useless variable 'ret', added documentation for explain new zram 
behaviour

Tested on 3.15.5-2-ARCH, can be applied on any kernel version
after this patch 'zram: add LZ4 compression support' -

@@ -18,9 +18,19 @@ Following shows a typical sequence of steps for using 
zram.

  1) Load Module:
  	modprobe zram num_devices=4
-	This creates 4 devices: /dev/zram{0,1,2,3}
+	This pre creates 4 devices: /dev/zram{0,1,2,3}
  	(num_devices parameter is optional. Default: 1)

+	Kernel dynamically changes number of zram devices by demand
+	(between num_devices and 31)
+	If set disk size(4) for last device
+	kernel automatically adds new zram device
+	If last two devices have zero disk size after reset(8),
+	kernel will destroy last device
+
+	Summing up all features, comes one simple rule:
+	"The last zram device is always free for use"
+
  2) Set max number of compression streams
  	Compression backend may use up to max_comp_streams compression streams,
  	thus allowing up to max_comp_streams concurrent compression operations.
