This patch creates a new memory allocation library named
zsmalloc.

NOTE: zsmalloc currently depends on SPARSEMEM for the MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS
value needed to determine the format of the object handle. There may
be a better way to do this.  Feedback is welcome.

This patch allow zcache to use the crypto API for page compression.
It replaces the direct LZO compress/decompress calls with calls
into the crypto compression API. The compressor to be used is
specified in the kernel boot line with the zcache parameter like:
zcache=lzo or zcache=deflate.  If the specified compressor can't
be loaded, zcache uses lzo as the default compressor.

messages by calling zcache. TODO explains future plans for merging.

In tmem.[ch], new "repatriate" (provoke async get) and "localify" (handle
incoming data resulting from an async get) routines combine with a handful
of changes to existing pamops interfaces allow the generic tmem code
to support asynchronous operations.  Also, a new tmem_xhandle struct
groups together key information that must be passed to remote tmem stores.

Zcache-main.c is augmented with a large amount of ramster-specific code
to handle remote operations and "foreign" pages on both ends of the
"remotify" protocol.  New "foreign" pools are auto-created on demand.
A "selfshrinker" thread periodically repatriates remote persistent pages
when local memory conditions allow.  For certain operations, a queue is
necessary to guarantee strict ordering as out-of-order puts/flushes can
cause strange race conditions.  Pampd pointers now either point to local
memory OR describe a remote page; to allow the same 64-bits to describe
either, the LSB is used to differentiate.  Some acrobatics must be performed
to ensure local memory is available to handle a remote persistent get,
or deal with the data directly anyway if the malloc failed.  Lots
of ramster-specific statistics are available via sysfs.

Note: Some debug ifdefs left in for now.

Copy files from drivers/staging/zcache.  Ramster compresses pages
locally before transmitting them to another node, so we can
leverage the zcache and tmem code directly.  Note: there are
no ramster-specific changes yet to these files.

(Why copy?  The ramster tmem.c/tmem.h changes are definitely shareable
between zcache and ramster; the eventual destination for tmem.c
is the linux lib directory.  Ramster changes to zcache are more substantial
and zcache is currently undergoing some significant unrelated changes
(including a new allocator and breaking zcache-main.c into smaller files),
so it seemed best to branch temporarily and merge later.)

Copy cluster subdirectory from ocfs2.  These files implement
the basic cluster discovery, mapping, heartbeat / keepalive, and
messaging ("o2net") that ramster requires for internode communication.
Note: there are NO ramster-specific changes yet; this commit
does NOT pass checkpatch since the copied source files do not.

(Why copy?  This particular part of ocfs2 has never been broken out
for non-ocfs2 use before, some (small) changes are required for ramster
to use that code, and ramster is currently incompatible with real
ocfs2 anyway (requires !CONFIG_OCFS2_FS).  Before ramster can be promoted
out of staging, we will need to work with the ocfs2 maintainers to
see if the code interdependencies can be merged, but for now, for
staging, this seemed to be an expedient way to make use of the ocfs2
core cluster code while still incorporating necessary changes for ramster.)

LMK should not directly check for task->mm. The reason is that the
process' threads may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other
threads may still have a valid mm. To catch this we use
find_lock_task_mm(), which walks up all threads and returns an
appropriate task (with lock held).

Grabbing tasklist_lock has its disadvantages, i.e. it blocks
process creation and destruction. If there are lots of processes,
blocking doesn't sound as a great idea.

For LMK, it is sufficient to surround tasks list traverse with
rcu_read_{,un}lock().

>From now on using force_sig() is not safe, as it can race with an
already exiting task, so we use send_sig() now. As a downside, it
won't kill PID namespace init processes, but that's not what we
want anyway.

Make this code slightly easier to read, and eliminate calls
to sub-routines.  Some of these were previously optimized away
by the compiler, but one memcpy was not.

In my testing, this makes the code about 20% smaller, and
has no sub-routine calls and no branches (on ARM).

v2 of this patch is, IMHO, easier to read than v1. Compared to
that patch it uses __u8 instead of unsigned char, for
consistency with the __u16 val data type, simplifies the
conditional expression, adds a another comment, and
moves a common statement out of the if.
