Subject: [PATCH 00/15] add zpdesc memory descriptor for zswap.zpool 

From: Alex Shi <alexs@...nel.org>

According to Metthew's plan, the page descriptor will be replace by a 8
bytes mem_desc on destination purpose.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YvV1KTyzZ+Jrtj9x@casper.infradead.org/

Here is a implement on z3fold to replace page descriptor by zpdesc,
which is still overlay on struct page now. but it's a step move forward
above destination.

To name the struct zpdesc instead of z3fold_desc, since there are 3 zpool
usages under zswap, zbud, z3fold, zsmalloc. It looks like we may extend the
zpdesc to zbud and zsmalloc, combined their usage into one.

For zpdesc(page), z3fold just uses the 5th member zppage_flag, which
match with page.private. Potentially uses the first member flags for
headless PG_locked, list_head lru and page.mapping|PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE
for page migration.

This patachset could save 26Kbyetes z3fold.o size, basely saving come
from the page to folio conversion.

Thanks a lot!
Alex
