Staging: zram: Refactor zram_read/write() functions

This patch refactor the code of zram_read/write() functions. It does
not removes a lot of duplicate code alone, but is mostly a helper for
the third patch of this series (Staging: zram: allow partial page
operations).

Staging: zram: allow partial page operations

Commit 7b19b8d45b216ff3186f066b31937bdbde066f08 (zram: Prevent overflow
in logical block size) introduced ZRAM_LOGICAL_BLOCK_SIZE constant to
prevent overflow of logical block size on 64k page kernel.
However, the current implementation of zram only allow operation on block
of the same size as a page. That makes theorically legit 4k requests fail
on 64k page kernel.

This patch makes zram allow operation on partial pages. Basically, it
means we still do operations on full pages internally, but only copy the
relevent segments from/to the user memory.

Staging: zram: Replace mutex lock by a R/W semaphore

Currently, nothing protects zram table from concurrent access.
For instance, ZRAM_UNCOMPRESSED bit can be cleared by zram_free_page()
called from a concurrent write between the time ZRAM_UNCOMPRESSED has
been set and the time it is tested to unmap KM_USER0 in
zram_bvec_write(). This ultimately leads to kernel panic.

Also, a read request can occurs when the page has been freed by a
running write request and before it has been updated, leading to
zero filled block being incorrectly read and "Read before write"
error message.

This patch replace the current mutex by a rw_semaphore. It extends
the protection to zram table (currently, only compression buffers are
protected) and read requests (currently, only write requests are
protected).

Staging: zram: Fix kunmapping order

This patch fixes the unmapping order of KM_USER0/1 in
handle_uncompressed_page() and zram_read() so that kmap()/kunmap() calls
are correctly nested.

staging: zram: fix zram locking

Currently init_lock only prevents concurrent execution of zram_init_device()
and zram_reset_device() but not zram_make_request() nor sysfs store functions.

This patch changes init_lock into a rw_semaphore. A write lock is taken by
init, reset and store functions, a read lock is taken by zram_make_request().
Also, avoids to release the lock before calling __zram_reset_device() for
cleaning after a failed init, thus preventing any concurrent task to see an
inconsistent state of zram.

staging: zram: prevent accessing an unallocated table when init fails early

When the allocation of zram->table fails, we set zram->disksize to zero
to prevent accessing the unallocated table entries during cleanup.
However, we currently don't take this precaution when the initialization
fails earlier.

Fixes sparse warning:

Also, max_zpage_size is now size_t just to be consistent with data-type

Staging: zram: Add a missing GFP_KERNEL specifier in zram_init_device()

The allocation of zram->compress_buffer is misssing a GFP_* specifier.
This is equivalent to GFP_NOWAIT but it is more likely a omission.
Since the allocation just above it uses GFP_KERNEL, there is no reason
to use GFP_NOWAIT here. Therefore, add GFP_KERNEL.
