Subject: [PATCH 0/2] zswap: use charp type params instead of fixed-len strings

These patches change zswap to use charp type params instead of the
existing fixed length char[] buffers for the zpool and compressor params.
This saves memory and simplifies the param setting function.

Dan Streetman (2):
  module: export param_free_charp()
  zswap: use charp for zswap param strings
