Subject: [PATCH v7] zswap: replace RB tree with xarray

Very deep RB tree requires rebalance at times. That
contributes to the zswap fault latencies. Xarray does not
need to perform tree rebalance. Replacing RB tree to xarray
can have some small performance gain.

One small difference is that xarray insert might fail with
ENOMEM, while RB tree insert does not allocate additional
memory.

The zswap_entry size will reduce a bit due to removing the
RB node, which has two pointers and a color field. Xarray
store the pointer in the xarray tree rather than the
zswap_entry. Every entry has one pointer from the xarray
tree. Overall, switching to xarray should save some memory,
if the swap entries are densely packed.

Notice the zswap_rb_search and zswap_rb_insert always
followed by zswap_rb_erase. Use xa_erase and xa_store
directly. That saves one tree lookup as well.

Remove zswap_invalidate_entry due to no need to call
zswap_rb_erase any more. Use zswap_free_entry instead.

The "struct zswap_tree" has been replaced by "struct xarray".
The tree spin lock has transferred to the xarray lock.

Run the kernel build testing 10 times for each version, averages:
(memory.max=2GB, zswap shrinker and writeback enabled,
one 50GB swapfile, 24 HT core, 32 jobs)
