Yosry Ahmed b9c91c4341 mm: zswap: support exclusive loads 
Commit 71024cb4a0 ("frontswap: remove frontswap_tmem_exclusive_gets")
removed support for exclusive loads from frontswap as it was not used. 
Bring back exclusive loads support to frontswap by adding an "exclusive"
output parameter to frontswap_ops->load.

On the zswap side, add a module parameter to enable/disable exclusive
loads, and a config option to control the boot default value.  Refactor
zswap entry invalidation in zswap_frontswap_invalidate_page() into
zswap_invalidate_entry() to reuse it in zswap_frontswap_load() if
exclusive loads are enabled.

With exclusive loads, we avoid having two copies of the same page in
memory (compressed & uncompressed) after faulting it in from zswap.  On
the other hand, if the page is to be reclaimed again without being
dirtied, it will be re-compressed.  Compression is not usually slow, and a
page that was just faulted in is less likely to be reclaimed again soon.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
