block: fiops ioscheduler core

FIOPS (Fair IOPS) ioscheduler is IOPS based ioscheduler, so only targets
for drive without I/O seek. It's quite similar like CFQ, but the dispatch
decision is made according to IOPS instead of slice.

The algorithm is simple. Drive has a service tree, and each task lives in
the tree. The key into the tree is called vios (virtual I/O). Every request
has vios, which is calculated according to its ioprio, request size and so
on. Task's vios is the sum of vios of all requests it dispatches. FIOPS
always selects task with minimum vios in the service tree and let the task
dispatch request. The dispatched request's vios is then added to the task's
vios and the task is repositioned in the sevice tree.

Unlike CFQ, FIOPS doesn't have separate sync/async queues, because with I/O
less writeback, usually a task can only dispatch either sync or async requests.
Bias read or write request can still be done with read/write scale.

One issue is if workload iodepth is lower than drive queue_depth, IOPS
share of a task might not be strictly according to its priority, request
size and so on. In this case, the drive is in idle actually. Solving the
problem need make drive idle, so impact performance. I believe CFQ isn't
completely fair between tasks in such case too.

block: fiops read/write request scale

read/write speed of Flash based storage usually is different. For example,
in my SSD maxium thoughput of read is about 3 times faster than that of
write. Add a scale to differenate read and write. Also add a tunable, so
user can assign different scale for read and write.

By default, the scale is 1:1, which means the scale is a noop.

block: fiops sync/async scale

CFQ gives 2.5 times more share to sync workload. This matches CFQ.

Note this is different with the read/write scale. We have 3 types of
requests:
1. read
2. sync write
3. write
CFQ doesn't differentitate type 1 and 2, but request cost of 1 and 2
are usually different for flash based storage. So we have both sync/async
and read/write scale here.

block: fiops add ioprio support

Add CFQ-like ioprio support. Priority A will get 20% more share than priority
A+1, which matches CFQ.

block: fiops preserve vios key for deep queue depth workload

If the task has running request, even it's added into service tree newly,
we preserve its vios key, so it will not lost its share. This should work
for task driving big queue depth. For single depth task, there is no approach
to preserve its vios key.

block: fiops bias sync workload

If there are async requests running, delay async workload. Otherwise
async workload (usually very deep iodepth) will use all queue iodepth
and later sync requests will get long delayed. The idea is from CFQ.

zsmalloc: use PageFlag macro instead of [set|test]_bit

staging: zsmalloc: rename zspage_order with zspage_pages

zspage_order defines how many pages are needed to make a zspage.
So _order_ is rather awkward naming. It already deceive Jonathan
- http://lwn.net/Articles/477067/
" For each size, the code calculates an optimum number of pages (up to 16)"

Let's change from _order_ to _pages_ and some function names.

staging: zsmalloc: zsmalloc: use unsigned long instead of void *

We should use unsigned long as handle instead of void * to avoid any
confusion. Without this, users may just treat zs_malloc return value as
a pointer and try to deference it.

This patch passed compile test(zram, zcache and ramster) and zram is
tested on qemu.

	- remove hval pointed out by Nitin
	- based on next-20120607
  * from v1
	- change zcache's zv_create return value

staging: zsmalloc: fix uninit'ed variable warning

This patch fixes an uninitialized variable warning in
alloc_zspage().  It also fixes the secondary issue of
prev_page leaving scope on each loop iteration.  The only
reason this ever worked was because prev_page was occupying
the same space on the stack on each iteration.

staging: zsmalloc: Finish conversion to a separate module

ZSMALLOC is tristate, but the code has no MODULE_LICENSE and since it
depends on GPL-only symbols it cannot be loaded as a module.  This in
turn breaks zram which now depends on it.  I assume it's meant to be
Dual BSD/GPL like the other z-stuff.

There is also no module_exit, which will make it impossible to unload.
Add the appropriate module_init and module_exit declarations suggested
by comments.
