The scompress code allocates 2 x 128 KB of scratch buffers for each CPU, so that clients of the async API can use synchronous implementations even from atomic context. However, on systems such as Cavium Thunderx (which has 96 cores), this adds up to a non-negligible 24 MB. Also, 32-bit systems may prefer to use their precious vmalloc space for other things,especially since there don't appear to be any clients for the async compression API yet. So let's defer allocation of the scratch buffers until the first time we allocate an acompress cipher based on an scompress implementation. Signed-off-by:
