Subject: [PATCHv2] zram: further limit recompression threshold

Recompression threshold should be below huge-size-class watermark.
Any object larger than huge-size-class is a "huge object" and
occupies a whole physical page on the zsmalloc side, in other
words it's incompressible, as far as zsmalloc is concerned.
