zram: add recompression algorithm sysfs knob
Introduce recomp_algorithm sysfs knob that controls secondary algorithm selection used for recompression. We will support up to 3 secondary compression algorithms which are sorted in order of their priority. To select an algorithm user has to provide its name and priority: echo "algo=zstd priority=1" > /sys/block/zramX/recomp_algorithm echo "algo=deflate priority=2" > /sys/block/zramX/recomp_algorithm During recompression zram iterates through the list of registered secondary algorithms in order of their priorities. We also have a short version for cases when there is only one secondary compression algorithm: echo "algo=zstd" > /sys/block/zramX/recomp_algorithm This will register zstd as the secondary algorithm with priority 1.
