zram: factor out single stream compression
This is preparation patch to add multi stream support to zcomp. Introduce struct zcomp_strm_single and a set of functions to manage zcomp_strm stream access. zcomp_strm_single implements single compession stream, same way as current zcomp implementation. This moves zcomp_strm stream control and locking from zcomp, so compressing backend zcomp is not aware of required locking. Single and multi streams require different locking schemes. Minchan Kim reported that spinlock-based locking scheme (which is used in multi stream implementation) has demonstrated a severe perfomance regression for single compression stream case, comparing to mutex-based. see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/18/16 The following set of functions added: - zcomp_strm_single_find()/zcomp_strm_single_release() find and release a compression stream, implement required locking - zcomp_strm_single_create()/zcomp_strm_single_destroy() create and destroy zcomp_strm_single New ->strm_find() and ->strm_release() callbacks added to zcomp, which are set to zcomp_strm_single_find() and zcomp_strm_single_release() during initialisation. Instead of direct locking and zcomp_strm access from zcomp_strm_find() and zcomp_strm_release(), zcomp now calls ->strm_find() and ->strm_release() correspondingly.
