zram: permit preemption with active compression stream
Currently, per-CPU stream access is done from a non-preemptible (atomic) section, which imposes the same atomicity requirements on compression backends as entry spin-lock, and makes it impossible to use algorithms that can schedule/wait/sleep during compression and decompression. Switch to preemptible per-CPU model, similar to the one used in zswap. Instead of a per-CPU local lock, each stream carries a mutex which is locked throughout entire time zram uses it for compression or decompression, so that cpu-dead event waits for zram to stop using a particular per-CPU stream and release it.
