This is a preparation patch for stats code duplication removal.

1) use atomic64_t for `pages_zero' and `pages_stored' zram stats.

2) `compr_size' and `pages_zero' struct zram_stats members did not
   follow the existing device attr naming scheme: zram_stats.ATTR has
   ATTR_show() function.  rename them:

   -- compr_size -> compr_data_size
   -- pages_zero -> zero_pages

Minchan Kim's note:
 If we really have trouble with atomic stat operation, we could
 change it with percpu_counter so that it could solve atomic overhead and
 unnecessary memory space by introducing unsigned long instead of 64bit
 atomic_t.

Remove `good' and `bad' compressed sub-requests stats.  RW request may
cause a number of RW sub-requests.  zram used to account `good' compressed
sub-queries (with compressed size less than 50% of original size), `bad'
compressed sub-queries (with compressed size greater that 75% of original
size), leaving sub-requests with compression size between 50% and 75% of
original size not accounted and not reported.  zram already accounts each
sub-request's compression size so we can calculate real device compression
ratio.

Introduce init_done() helper function which allows us to drop `init_done'
struct zram member.  init_done() uses the fact that ->init_done == 1
equals to ->meta != NULL.

Finally, we separated zram->lock dependency from 32bit stat/ table
handling so there is no reason to use rw_semaphore between read and
write path so this patch removes the lock from read path totally and
changes rw_semaphore with mutex.  So, we could do

old:

  read-read: OK
  read-write: NO
  write-write: NO

Now:

  read-read: OK
  read-write: OK
  write-write: NO

The below data proves mixed workload performs well 11 times and there is
also enhance on write-write path because current rw-semaphore doesn't
support SPIN_ON_OWNER.  It's side effect but anyway good thing for us.

Write-related tests perform better (from 61% to 1058%) but read path has
good/bad(from -2.22% to 1.45%) but they are all marginal within stddev.

Commit a0c516cb ("zram: don't grab mutex in zram_slot_free_noity")
introduced free request pending code to avoid scheduling by mutex under
spinlock and it was a mess which made code lenghty and increased
overhead.

Now, we don't need zram->lock any more to free slot so this patch
reverts it and then, tb_lock should protect it.

Currently, the zram table is protected by zram->lock but it's rather
coarse-grained lock and it makes hard for scalibility.

Let's use own rwlock instead of depending on zram->lock.  This patch
adds new locking so obviously, it would make slow but this patch is just
prepartion for removing coarse-grained rw_semaphore(ie, zram->lock)
which is hurdle about zram scalability.

Final patch in this patchset series will remove the lock from read-path
and change rw_semaphore with mutex in write path.  With bonus, we could
drop pending slot free mess in next patch.

Some of fields in zram->stats are protected by zram->lock which is
rather coarse-grained so let's use atomic operation without explict
locking.

This patch is ready for removing dependency of zram->lock in read path
which is very coarse-grained rw_semaphore.  Of course, this patch adds
new atomic operation so it might make slow but my 12CPU test couldn't
spot any regression.  All gain/lose is marginal within stddev.

Zram has lived in staging for a LONG LONG time and have been
fixed/improved by many contributors so code is clean and stable now.  Of
course, there are lots of product using zram in real practice.

The major TV companys have used zram as swap since two years ago and
recently our production team released android smart phone with zram
which is used as swap, too and recently Android Kitkat start to use zram
for small memory smart phone.  And there was a report Google released
their ChromeOS with zram, too and cyanogenmod have been used zram long
time ago.  And I heard some disto have used zram block device for tmpfs.
In addition, I saw many report from many other peoples.  For example,
Lubuntu start to use it.

The benefit of zram is very clear.  With my experience, one of the
benefit was to remove jitter of video application with backgroud memory
pressure.  It would be effect of efficient memory usage by compression
but more issue is whether swap is there or not in the system.  Recent
mobile platforms have used JAVA so there are many anonymous pages.  But
embedded system normally are reluctant to use eMMC or SDCard as swap
because there is wear-leveling and latency issues so if we do not use
swap, it means we can't reclaim anoymous pages and at last, we could
encounter OOM kill.  :(

Although we have real storage as swap, it was a problem, too.  Because
it sometime ends up making system very unresponsible caused by slow swap
storage performance.

Quote from Luigi on Google
 "Since Chrome OS was mentioned: the main reason why we don't use swap
  to a disk (rotating or SSD) is because it doesn't degrade gracefully
  and leads to a bad interactive experience.  Generally we prefer to
  manage RAM at a higher level, by transparently killing and restarting
  processes.  But we noticed that zram is fast enough to be competitive
  with the latter, and it lets us make more efficient use of the
  available RAM.  " and he announced.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg57717.html

Other uses case is to use zram for block device.  Zram is block device
so anyone can format the block device and mount on it so some guys on
the internet start zram as /var/tmp.
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-838198-start-0.html

This patch moves zsmalloc under mm directory.

Before that, description will explain why we have needed custom
allocator.

Zsmalloc is a new slab-based memory allocator for storing compressed
pages.  It is designed for low fragmentation and high allocation success
rate on large object, but <= PAGE_SIZE allocations.

zsmalloc differs from the kernel slab allocator in two primary ways to
achieve these design goals.

zsmalloc never requires high order page allocations to back slabs, or
"size classes" in zsmalloc terms.  Instead it allows multiple
single-order pages to be stitched together into a "zspage" which backs
the slab.  This allows for higher allocation success rate under memory
pressure.

Also, zsmalloc allows objects to span page boundaries within the zspage.
This allows for lower fragmentation than could be had with the kernel
slab allocator for objects between PAGE_SIZE/2 and PAGE_SIZE.  With the
kernel slab allocator, if a page compresses to 60% of it original size,
the memory savings gained through compression is lost in fragmentation
because another object of the same size can't be stored in the leftover
space.

This ability to span pages results in zsmalloc allocations not being
directly addressable by the user.  The user is given an
non-dereferencable handle in response to an allocation request.  That
handle must be mapped, using zs_map_object(), which returns a pointer to
the mapped region that can be used.  The mapping is necessary since the
object data may reside in two different noncontigious pages.

The zsmalloc fulfills the allocation needs for zram perfectly

[1] introduced down_write in zram_slot_free_notify to prevent race
between zram_slot_free_notify and zram_bvec_[read|write]. The race
could happen if somebody who has right permission to open swap device
is reading swap device while it is used by swap in parallel.

However, zram_slot_free_notify is called with holding spin_lock of
swap layer so we shouldn't avoid holing mutex. Otherwise, lockdep
warns it.

This patch adds new list to handle free slot and workqueue
so zram_slot_free_notify just registers slot index to be freed and
registers the request to workqueue. If workqueue is expired,
it holds mutex_lock so there is no problem any more.

If any I/O is issued, zram handles pending slot-free request
caused by zram_slot_free_notify right before handling issued
request because workqueue wouldn't be expired yet so zram I/O
request handling function can miss it.

Lastly, when zram is reset, flush_work could handle all of pending
free request so we shouldn't have memory leak.

NOTE: If zram_slot_free_notify's kmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC would be
failed, the slot will be freed when next write I/O write the slot.

zram_slot_free_notify() is free-running without any protection from
concurrent operations. So there are race conditions between
zram_bvec_read()/zram_bvec_write() and zram_slot_free_notify(),
and possible consequences include:
1) Trigger BUG_ON(!handle) on zram_bvec_write() side.
2) Access to freed pages on zram_bvec_read() side.
3) Break some fields (bad_compress, good_compress, pages_stored)
   in zram->stats if the swap layer makes concurrently call to
   zram_slot_free_notify().

So enhance zram_slot_free_notify() to acquire writer lock on zram->lock

Now zram document syas "set disksize is optional"
but partly it's wrong. When you try to use zram firstly after
booting, you must set disksize, otherwise zram can't work because
zram gendisk's size is 0. But once you do it, you can use zram freely
after reset because reset doesn't reset to zero paradoxically.
So in this time, disksize setting is optional.:(
It's inconsitent for user behavior and not straightforward.

This patch forces always setting disksize firstly before using zram.
Yes. It changes current behavior so someone could complain when
he upgrades zram. Apparently it could be a problem if zram is mainline
but it still lives in staging so behavior could be changed for right
way to go. Let them excuse.

Quote from Nitin
"I think page vs handle distinction was added since xvmalloc could not
handle full page allocation. Now that zsmalloc allows full page
allocation, we can just use it for both cases. This would also allow
removing the ZRAM_UNCOMPRESSED flag. The only downside will be slightly
slower code path for full page allocation but this event is anyways
supposed to be rare, so should be fine."

Also, avoids to release the lock before calling __zram_reset_device() for

Currently, nothing protects zram table from concurrent access.
For instance, ZRAM_UNCOMPRESSED bit can be cleared by zram_free_page()
called from a concurrent write between the time ZRAM_UNCOMPRESSED has
been set and the time it is tested to unmap KM_USER0 in
zram_bvec_write(). This ultimately leads to kernel panic.

Also, a read request can occurs when the page has been freed by a
running write request and before it has been updated, leading to
zero filled block being incorrectly read and "Read before write"
error message.

This patch replace the current mutex by a rw_semaphore. It extends
the protection to zram table (currently, only compression buffers are
protected) and read requests (currently, only write requests are
protected).

Commit 7b19b8d4 (zram: Prevent overflow
in logical block size) introduced ZRAM_LOGICAL_BLOCK_SIZE constant to
prevent overflow of logical block size on 64k page kernel.
However, the current implementation of zram only allow operation on block
of the same size as a page. That makes theorically legit 4k requests fail
on 64k page kernel.

This patch makes zram allow operation on partial pages. Basically, it
means we still do operations on full pages internally, but only copy the
relevent segments from/to the user memory.

Currently, the user has to explicitly write a positive value to
initstate sysfs node before the device can be used. This event
triggers allocation of per-device metadata like memory pool,
table array and so on.

We do not pre-initialize all zram devices since the 'table' array,
mapping disk blocks to compressed chunks, takes considerable amount
of memory (8 bytes per page). So, pre-initializing all devices will
be quite wasteful if only few or none of the devices are actually
used.

This explicit device initialization from user is an odd requirement and
can be easily avoided. We now initialize the device when first write is
done to the device.

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.

Currently, ramzwap devices (/dev/ramzswapX) can only
be used as swap disks since it was hard-coded to consider
only the first request in bio vector.

Now, we iterate over all the segments in an incoming
bio which allows us to handle all kinds of I/O requests.

ramzswap devices can still handle PAGE_SIZE aligned and
multiple of PAGE_SIZE sized I/O requests only. To ensure
that we get always get such requests only, we set following
request_queue attributes to PAGE_SIZE:
 - physical_block_size
 - logical_block_size
 - io_min
 - io_opt

Note: physical and logical block sizes were already set
equal to PAGE_SIZE and that seems to be sufficient to get
PAGE_SIZE aligned I/O.

Since we are no longer limited to handling swap requests
only, the next few patches rename ramzswap to zram. So,
the devices will then be called /dev/zram{0, 1, 2, ...}

Usage/Examples:
 1) Use as /tmp storage
 - mkfs.ext4 /dev/zram0
 - mount /dev/zram0 /tmp

 2) Use as swap:
 - mkswap /dev/zram0
 - swapon /dev/zram0 -p 10 # give highest priority to zram0

Performance:

 - I/O benchamark done with 'dd' command. Details can be
found here:
http://code.google.com/p/compcache/wiki/zramperf
Summary:
 - Maximum read speed (approx):
   - ram disk: 1200 MB/sec
   - zram disk: 600 MB/sec
 - Maximum write speed (approx):
   - ram disk: 500 MB/sec
   - zram disk: 160 MB/sec

Issues:

 - Double caching: We can potentially waste memory by having
two copies of a page -- one in page cache (uncompress) and
second in the device memory (compressed). However, during
reclaim, clean page cache pages are quickly freed, so this
does not seem to be a big problem.

 - Stale data: Not all filesystems support issuing 'discard'
requests to underlying block devices. So, if such filesystems
are used over zram devices, we can accumulate lot of stale
data in memory. Even for filesystems to do support discard
(example, ext4), we need to see how effective it is.

 - Scalability: There is only one (per-device) de/compression
buffer stats. This can lead to significant contention, especially
when used for generic (non-swap) purposes.

Currently, each ramzswap device can be assigned
a separate 'backing swap' file/partition. The ramzswap
driver forwards swap I/O requests to this backing swap
whenever an incompressible page is found.

This feature adds nearly 700 lines of code and it
also duplicates much of the swapon() functionality
(for example, finding swap extents and so on). Removing
this code makes the driver much simpler and should
help its transition from staging to stable drivers
area (drivers/block/).

Similar functionality may be implemented if we can
implement migrating pages across swap devices but the
details have not yet been worked out.

Support for _partitions_ as backing swap could be
retained as it requires a few lines of code only.
This part can be re-introduced later if above swap
migration method turns out to be infeasible.

More cleanups and code comments will be added soon.
