Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] PM: hibernate: Support to select compression algorithm

Currently the default compression algorithm is selected based on
Kconfig. Introduce a kernel command line parameter "hib_compression" to
override this behaviour.

Different compression algorithms have different characteristics and
hibernation may benefit when it uses any of these algorithms, especially
when a secondary algorithm offers better decompression speeds over a
default algorithm, which in turn reduces hibernation image restore time.

Users can set "hib_compression" command line parameter to override the
default algorithm. Currently LZO and LZ4 are the supported algorithms.
Usage:
    LZO: hib_compression=lzo
    LZ4: hib_compression=lz4

LZO is the default compression algorithm used with hibernation.
