Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 00/21] mm/zsmalloc: Split zsdesc from struct page

v1 -> v2:
 - rebased to the latest mm-unstable, resulting in some patches dropped
 - adjusted comments from Mike Rapoport, defining helpers when
   converting its users

The purpose of this series is to define own memory descriptor for zsmalloc,
instead of re-using various fields of struct page. This is a part of the
effort to reduce the size of struct page to unsigned long and enable
dynamic allocation of memory descriptors.

While [1] outlines this ultimate objective, the current use of struct page
is highly dependent on its definition, making it challenging to separately
allocate memory descriptors.

Therefore, this series introduces new descriptor for zsmalloc, called
zsdesc. It overlays struct page for now, but will eventually be allocated
independently in the future. And apart from dynamic allocation of descriptors,
this is a nice cleanup.
