[PATCH 0/2] mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock

[Chengming Zhou <chengming.zhou@linux.dev>]

Commit c0547d0b6a4b ("zsmalloc: consolidate zs_pool's migrate_lock and
size_class's locks") changed per-size_class lock to pool spinlock to
prepare reclaim support in zsmalloc. Then reclaim support in zsmalloc
had been dropped in favor of LRU reclaim in zswap, but this locking
change had been left there.

Obviously, the scalability of pool spinlock is worse than per-size_class.
And we have a workaround that using 32 pools in zswap to avoid this
scalability problem, which brings its own problems like memory waste
and more memory fragmentation.

So this series changes back to use per-size_class lock and using testing
data in much stressed situation to verify that we can use only one pool
in zswap.

Testing kernel build (make bzImage -j32) on tmpfs with memory.max=1GB,
and zswap shrinker enabled with 10GB swapfile on ext4.

				real	user    sys
6.10.0-rc3			138.18	1241.38 1452.73
6.10.0-rc3-onepool		149.45	1240.45 1844.69
6.10.0-rc3-onepool-perclass	138.23	1242.37 1469.71

We can see from "sys" column that per-size_class locking with only one
pool in zswap can have near performance with the current 32 pools.
