6e2361720b staging: zram/zcache: swtich Kconfig dependency from X86 to ZSMALLOC
This patch switches zcache and zram dependency to ZSMALLOC
rather than X86.  There is no net change since ZSMALLOC
depends on X86, however, this prevent further changes to
these files as zsmalloc dependencies change.

0cbb613fa8 staging: fix powerpc linux-next break on zsmalloc
linux/vmalloc.h added to zsmalloc-main.c to resolve implicit
declaration errors.

X86 dependency added to zsmalloc and dependent drivers zcache and zram.

This X86 only requirement is not ideal.  Working to find portable
functions for __flush_tlb_one and set_pte.

3c8bb7aab9 staging: Allow sharing xvmalloc for zram and zcache
Both zram and zcache use xvmalloc allocator. If xvmalloc
is compiled separately for both of them, we will get linker
error if they are both selected as "built-in". We can also
get linker error regarding missing xvmalloc symbols if zram
is not built.

So, we now compile xvmalloc separately and export its symbols
which are then used by both of zram and zcache.

We can not configure zram device without sysfs anyway, so make zram
depends on it.

33863c21e6 Staging: zram: Replace ioctls with sysfs interface
Creates per-device sysfs nodes in /sys/block/zram<id>/
Currently following stats are exported:
 - disksize
 - num_reads
 - num_writes
 - invalid_io
 - zero_pages
 - orig_data_size
 - compr_data_size
 - mem_used_total

By default, disksize is set to 0. So, to start using
a zram device, fist write a disksize value and then
initialize device by writing any positive value to
initstate. For example:

        # initialize /dev/zram0 with 50MB disksize
        echo 50*1024*1024 | bc > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
        echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/initstate

When done using a disk, issue reset to free its memory
by writing any positive value to reset node:

        echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/reset

This change also obviates the need for 'rzscontrol' utility.

16a4bfb9e9 Staging: Rename ramzswap files to zram
Related changes:
 - Modify revelant Kconfig and Makefile accordingly.
 - Change include filenames in code.
 - Remove dependency on CONFIG_SWAP in Kconfig as zram usage
is no longer limited to swap disks.
