Subject: [PATCH v1 5/5] zram: add fullness knob to control swap full

Some zram usecase could want lower fullness than default 80 to
avoid unnecessary swapout-and-fail-recover overhead.

A typical example is that mutliple swap with high piroirty
zram-swap and low priority HDD-swap so it could still enough
free swap space although one of swap devices is full(ie, zram).
It would be better to fail over to HDD-swap rather than failing
swap write to zram in this case.

This patch exports fullness to user so user can control it
via the knob.
