<content type='text'>
Patch series "zsmalloc/zram: drop zram's max_zpage_size", v3.

ZRAM's max_zpage_size is a bad thing.  It forces zsmalloc to store
normal objects as huge ones, which results in bigger zsmalloc memory
usage.  Drop it and use actual zsmalloc huge-class value when decide if
the object is huge or not.

This patch (of 2):

Not every object can be share its zspage with other objects, e.g.  when
the object is as big as zspage or nearly as big a zspage.  For such
objects zsmalloc has a so called huge class - every object which belongs
to huge class consumes the entire zspage (which consists of a physical
page).  On x86_64, PAGE_SHIFT 12 box, the first non-huge class size is
3264, so starting down from size 3264, objects can share page(-s) and
thus minimize memory wastage.

ZRAM, however, has its own statically defined watermark for huge
objects, namely "3 * PAGE_SIZE / 4 = 3072", and forcibly stores every
object larger than this watermark (3072) as a PAGE_SIZE object, in other
words, to a huge class, while zsmalloc can keep some of those objects in
non-huge classes.  This results in increased memory consumption.

zsmalloc knows better if the object is huge or not.  Introduce
zs_huge_class_size() function which tells if the given object can be
stored in one of non-huge classes or not.  This will let us to drop
ZRAM's huge object watermark and fully rely on zsmalloc when we decide
if the object is huge.

<content type='text'>
With boot-time switching between paging mode we will have variable
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.

Let's use the maximum variable possible for CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y
configuration to define zsmalloc data structures.

The patch introduces MAX_POSSIBLE_PHYSMEM_BITS to cover such case.
It also suits well to handle PAE special case.

Use BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in zs_map_object().  This is not a new
BUG_ON(), it's always been there, but was recently changed to
VM_BUG_ON().  There are several problems there.  First, we use use
per-CPU mappings both in zsmalloc and in zram, and interrupt may easily
corrupt those buffers.  Second, and more importantly, we believe it's
possible to start leaking sensitive information.  Consider the following
case:

-&gt; process P
	swap out
	 zram
	  per-cpu mapping CPU1
	   compress page A
-&gt; IRQ

	swap out
	 zram
	  per-cpu mapping CPU1
	   compress page B
	    write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool
	iret

-&gt; process P
	    write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool  [*]
	return

* so we store overwritten data that actually belongs to another
  page (task) and potentially contains sensitive data. And when
  process P will page fault it's going to read (swap in) that
  other task's data.

zs_stat_inc/dec/get() uses enum zs_stat_type for the stat type, however
some callers pass an enum fullness_group value.  Change the type to int to
reflect the actual use of the functions and get rid of 'enum-conversion'
warnings
