Subject: [PATCHv2 00/17] zram: convert to custom comp API and allow algorithms configuration

	This patch set moves zram from crypto API to a custom compression
API which allows us to tune and configure compression algorithms,
something that crypto API, unfortunately, doesn't support. Basically,
this seroes brings back the bits of comp "backend" code that we had
many years ago. This means that if we want zram to support new
compression algorithms we need to implement corresponding backends.

        Currently, zram supports a pretty decent number of comp backends:
lzo, lzorle, lz4, lz4hc, 842, deflate, zstd

        At this point we handle 2 parameters: a compression level and
a pre-trained compression dictionary. Which seems like a good enough
start. The list will be extended in the future.

Examples:

- changes default compression level
        echo "algo=zstd level=11" > /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm

- passes path to a pre-trained dictionary
        echo "algo=zstd dict=/etc/dictionary" > /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm

TEST
====

using default zstd
/sys/block/zram0/mm_stat
1750315008 504602831 514256896        0 514256896        1        0    34204    34204

using zstd level=7 dict=/etc/dictionary
/sys/block/zram0/mm_stat
1750310912 432540606 441712640        0 441712640        1        0    34187    34187

v2:
-- forcibly select LZO when nono backeneds were selected (Masahiro Yamada)
-- add 842 compression backend
-- added comp config preprocessing and caching
-- reworked zstd dict handling
