This change introduces an aged idle interface to the existing idle sysfs
file for zram.
When CONFIG_ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING is enabled the idle file now also
accepts an integer argument. This integer is the age (in seconds) of
pages to mark as idle. The idle file still supports 'all' as it always
has. This new approach allows for much more control over which pages
get marked as idle.

snprintf() returns the number of bytes it would have printed if there
were space. But it does not count the NUL terminator. So that means
that if "count == copied" then this has already overflowed by one
character.
This bug likely isn't super harmful in real life.

When the zram module is being unloaded, no one should be using the
zram disks. However even while being unloaded the zram module's
sysfs attributes might be poked at to re-configure zram devices.
This is expected, and kernfs ensures that these operations complete
before device_del() completes.
But reset_store() may set ->claim which will fail zram_remove(), when
this happens, zram_reset_device() is bypassed, and zram->comp can't
be destroyed, so the warning of 'Error: Removing state 63 which has
instances left.' is triggered during unloading module, together with
memory leak and sort of thing.
Fixes the issue by not failing zram_remove() if ->claim is set, and
we actually need to do nothing in case that zram_reset() is running
since del_gendisk() will wait until zram_reset() is done.

Replace the blk_poll interface that requires the caller to keep a queue
and cookie from the submissions with polling based on the bio.
Polling for the bio itself leads to a few advantages:
- the cookie construction can made entirely private in blk-mq.c
- the caller does not need to remember the request_queue and cookie
separately and thus sidesteps their lifetime issues
- keeping the device and the cookie inside the bio allows to trivially
support polling BIOs remapping by stacking drivers
- a lot of code to propagate the cookie back up the submission path can
be removed entirely.

commit 0d8359620d ("zram: support page writeback") introduced two
problems. It overwrites writeback_store's return value as kstrtol's
return value, which makes return value zero so user could see zero as
return value of write syscall even though it wrote data successfully.
It also breaks index value in the loop in that it doesn't increase the
index any longer. It means it can write only first starting block index
so user couldn't write all idle pages in the zram so lose memory saving
chance.
This patch fixes those issues.

writeback_store's return value is overwritten by submit_bio_wait's return
value. Thus, writeback_store will return zero since there was no IO
error. In the end, write syscall from userspace will see the zero as
return value, which could make the process stall to keep trying the write
until it will succeed.

There exists multiple path may do zram compaction concurrently.
1. auto-compaction triggered during memory reclaim
2. userspace utils write zram<id>/compaction node
So, multiple threads may call zs_shrinker_scan/zs_compact concurrently.
But pages_compacted is a per zsmalloc pool variable and modification
of the variable is not serialized(through under class->lock).
There are two issues here:
1. the pages_compacted may not equal to total number of pages
freed(due to concurrently add).
2. zs_shrinker_scan may not return the correct number of pages
freed(issued by current shrinker).
The fix is simple:
1. account the number of pages freed in zs_compact locally.
2. use actomic variable pages_compacted to accumulate total number.

From the beginning, the zram block device always enabled CRYPTO_LZO,
since lzo-rle is hardcoded as the fallback compression algorithm. As a
consequence, on systems where another compression algorithm is chosen
(e.g. CRYPTO_ZSTD), the lzo kernel module becomes unused, while still
having to be built/loaded.
This patch removes the hardcoded lzo-rle dependency and allows the user
to select the default compression algorithm for zram at build time. The
previous behaviour is kept, as the default algorithm is still lzo-rle.

the lifetime rule changes in preparation of merging the two structures.
Note that part0 was previously embedded into struct gendisk, but is
a separate allocation now, and already points to the block_device instead
of the hd_struct. The lifetime of struct gendisk is still controlled by
the struct device embedded in the part0 hd_struct.

If we fail to decompress in zram it's a pretty serious problem. We were
entrusted to be able to decompress the old data but we failed. Either
we've got some crazy bug in the compression code or we've got memory
corruption.
At the moment, when this happens the log looks like this:
ERR kernel: [ 1833.099861] zram: Decompression failed! err=-22, page=336112
ERR kernel: [ 1833.099881] zram: Decompression failed! err=-22, page=336112
ALERT kernel: [ 1833.099886] Read-error on swap-device (253:0:2688896)
It is true that we have an "ALERT" level log in there, but (at least to
me) it feels like even this isn't enough to impart the seriousness of this
error. Let's convert to a WARN_ON. Note that WARN_ON is automatically
"unlikely" so we can simply replace the old annotation with the new one.

The BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES is one of the few bits of information in the
backing_dev_info shared between the block drivers and the writeback code.
To help untangling the dependency replace it with a queue flag and a
superblock flag derived from it. This also helps with the case of e.g.
a file system requiring stable writes due to its own checksumming, but
not forcing it on other users of the block device like the swap code.
One downside is that we an't support the stable_pages_required bdi
attribute in sysfs anymore. It is replaced with a queue attribute which
also is writable for easier testing.

revalidate_disk is a relative awkward helper for driver use, as it first
calls an optional driver method and then updates the block device size,
while most callers either don't need the method call at all, or want to
keep state between the caller and the called method.
Add a revalidate_disk_size helper that just performs the update of the
block device size from the gendisk one, and switch all drivers that do
not implement ->revalidate_disk to use the new helper instead of
revalidate_disk()

The zcomp driver uses per-CPU compression. The per-CPU data pointer is
acquired with get_cpu_ptr() which implicitly disables preemption.
It allocates memory inside the preempt disabled region which conflicts
with the PREEMPT_RT semantics.
Replace the implicit preemption control with an explicit local lock.
This allows RT kernels to substitute it with a real per CPU lock, which
serializes the access but keeps the code section preemptible. On non RT
kernels this maps to preempt_disable() as before, i.e. no functional
change.

Current make_request based drivers use either blk_alloc_queue_node or
blk_alloc_queue to allocate a queue, and then set up the make_request_fn
function pointer and a few parameters using the blk_queue_make_request
helper. Simplify this by passing the make_request pointer to
blk_alloc_queue, and while at it merge the _node variant into the main
helper by always passing a node_id, and remove the superfluous gfp_mask

Currently when an error code -EIO or -ENOSPC in the for-loop of
writeback_store the error code is being overwritten by a ret = len
assignment at the end of the function and the error codes are being
lost. Fix this by assigning ret = len at the start of the function and
remove the assignment from the end, hence allowing ret to be preserved
when error codes are assigned to it.

The worst-case scenario on finding same element pages is that almost all
elements are same at the first glance but only last few elements are
different.
Since the same element tends to be grouped from the beginning of the
pages, if we check the first element with the last element before
looping through all elements, we might have some chances to quickly
detect non-same element pages.
1. Test is done under LG webOS TV (64-bit arch)
2. Dump the swap-out pages (~819200 pages)
3. Analyze the pages with simple test script which counts the iteration
number and measures the speed at off-line
Under 64-bit arch, the worst iteration count is PAGE_SIZE / 8 bytes =
512. The speed is based on the time to consume page_same_filled()
function only. The result, on average, is listed as below:
Num of Iter Speed(MB/s)
Looping-Forward (Orig) 38 99265
Looping-Backward 36 102725
Last-element-check (This Patch) 33 125072
The result shows that the average iteration count decreases by 13% and
the speed increases by 25% with this patch. This patch does not
increase the overall time complexity, though.
I also ran simpler version which uses backward loop. Just looping
backward also makes some improvement, but less than this patch.
