Minchan Kim 312fcae227 zsmalloc: support compaction
This patch provides core functions for migration of zsmalloc.  Migraion
policy is simple as follows.

for each size class {
        while {
                src_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY
                if (!src_page)
                        break;
                dst_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_FULL
                if (!dst_page)
                        dst_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY
                if (!dst_page)
                        break;
                migrate(from src_page, to dst_page);
        }
}

For migration, we need to identify which objects in zspage are allocated
to migrate them out.  We could know it by iterating of freed objects in a
zspage because first_page of zspage keeps free objects singly-linked list
but it's not efficient.  Instead, this patch adds a tag(ie,
OBJ_ALLOCATED_TAG) in header of each object(ie, handle) so we could check
whether the object is allocated easily.

This patch adds another status bit in handle to synchronize between user
access through zs_map_object and migration.  During migration, we cannot
move objects user are using due to data coherency between old object and
new object.
