zram: user per-cpu compression streams

zram: user per-cpu compression streams

Remove idle streams list and keep compression streams in per-cpu data.
This removes two contented spin_lock()/spin_unlock() calls from write
path and also prevent write OP from being preempted while holding the
compression stream, which can cause slow downs.

For instance, let's assume that we have N cpus and N-2
max_comp_streams.TASK1 owns the last idle stream, TASK2-TASK3 come in
with the write requests:

  TASK1            TASK2              TASK3
 zram_bvec_write()
  spin_lock
  find stream
  spin_unlock

  compress

  <<preempted>>   zram_bvec_write()
                   spin_lock
                   find stream
                   spin_unlock
                     no_stream
                       schedule
                                     zram_bvec_write()
                                      spin_lock
                                      find_stream
                                      spin_unlock
                                        no_stream
                                          schedule
   spin_lock
   release stream
   spin_unlock
     wake up TASK2

not only TASK2 and TASK3 will not get the stream, TASK1 will be
preempted in the middle of its operation; while we would prefer it to
finish compression and release the stream.

Test environment: x86_64, 4 CPU box, 3G zram, lzo

The following fio tests were executed:
      read, randread, write, randwrite, rw, randrw
with the increasing number of jobs from 1 to 10.

                  4 streams        8 streams       per-cpu

per-cpu streams tend to cause significantly less stalled cycles; execute
less branches and hit less branch-misses.

perf stat reported execution time
