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.

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: 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.

staging: zcache: fix crash on cpu remove

In the case that a cpu is taken offline before zcache_do_preload() is
ever called on the cpu, the per-cpu zcache_preloads structure will
be uninitialized.  In the CPU_DEAD case for zcache_cpu_notifier(),
kp->obj is not checked before calling kmem_cache_free() on it.
If it is NULL, a crash results.

This patch ensures that both kp->obj and kp->page are not NULL before
calling the respective free functions. In practice, just checking
one or the other should be sufficient since they are assigned together
in zcache_do_preload(), but I check both for safety.

staging: zcache: reduce tmem bucket lock contention

tmem uses hash buckets each with their own rbtree and lock to
quickly lookup tmem objects.  tmem has TMEM_HASH_BUCKETS (256)
buckets per pool.  However, because of the way the tmem_oid is
generated for frontswap pages, only 16 unique tmem_oids are being
generated, resulting in only 16 of the 256 buckets being used.
This cause high lock contention for the per bucket locks.

This patch changes SWIZ_BITS to include more bits of the offset.
The result is that all 256 hash buckets are potentially used resulting in a
95% drop in hash bucket lock contention.

staging: zcache: remove zcache_direct_reclaim_lock

zcache_do_preload() currently does a spin_trylock() on the
zcache_direct_reclaim_lock. Holding this lock intends to prevent
shrink_zcache_memory() from evicting zbud pages as a result
of a preload.

However, it also prevents two threads from
executing zcache_do_preload() at the same time.  The first
thread will obtain the lock and the second thread's spin_trylock()
will fail (an aborted preload) causing the page to be either lost
(cleancache) or pushed out to the swap device (frontswap). It
also doesn't ensure that the call to shrink_zcache_memory() is
on the same thread as the call to zcache_do_preload().

Additional, there is no need for this mechanism because all
zcache_do_preload() calls that come down from cleancache already
have PF_MEMALLOC set in the process flags which prevents
direct reclaim in the memory manager. If the zcache_do_preload()
call is done from the frontswap path, we _want_ reclaim to be
done (which it isn't right now).

This patch removes the zcache_direct_reclaim_lock and related
statistics in zcache.

zcache: fix deadlock condition

I discovered this deadlock condition awhile ago working on RAMster
but it affects zcache as well.  The list spinlock must be
locked prior to the page spinlock and released after.  As
a result, the page copy must also be done while the locks are held.

Applies to 3.2.  Konrad, please push (via GregKH?)...
this is definitely a bug fix so need not be pushed during
a -rc0 window.

zcache: Set SWIZ_BITS to 8 to reduce tmem bucket lock contention.

SWIZ_BITS > 8 results in a much larger number of "tmem_obj"
allocations, likely one per page-placed-in-frontswap.  The
tmem_obj is not huge (roughly 100 bytes), but it is large
enough to add a not-insignificant memory overhead to zcache.

The SWIZ_BITS=8  will get roughly the same lock contention
without the space wastage.

The effect of SWIZ_BITS can be thought of as "2^SWIZ_BITS is
the number of unique oids that be generated" (This concept is
limited to frontswap's use of tmem).
