Subject: [RFC PATCH 5/9] mm/zbud: encode zbud handle using struct page

As a preparation for further patches, this patch changes the way of
encoding zbud handle. Currently, zbud handle is actually just a virtual
address that is casted to unsigned long before return back. Exporting
the address to clients would be inappropriate if we use highmem pages
for zbud pages, which will be implemented by following patches.

Change the zbud handle to struct page* with the least significant bit
indicating the first or last. All other information are hidden in the
struct page.
