mm: zswap: support exclusive loads
Commit 71024cb4a0bf ("frontswap: remove frontswap_tmem_exclusive_gets")
removed support for exclusive loads from frontswap as it was not used.
Bring back exclusive loads support to frontswap by adding an "exclusive"
output parameter to frontswap_ops->load.
On the zswap side, add a module parameter to enable/disable exclusive
loads, and a config option to control the boot default value. Refactor
zswap entry invalidation in zswap_frontswap_invalidate_page() into
zswap_invalidate_entry() to reuse it in zswap_frontswap_load() if
exclusive loads are enabled.
With exclusive loads, we avoid having two copies of the same page in
memory (compressed & uncompressed) after faulting it in from zswap. On
the other hand, if the page is to be reclaimed again without being
dirtied, it will be re-compressed. Compression is not usually slow, and a
page that was just faulted in is less likely to be reclaimed again soon.
