Sergey Senozhatsky a55cf9648d zram: add algo parameter support to zram_recompress()
Recompression iterates through all the registered secondary compression
algorithms in order of their priorities so that we have higher chances of
finding the algorithm that compresses a particular page.  This, however,
may not always be best approach and sometimes we may want to limit
recompression to only one particular algorithm.  For instance, when a
higher priority algorithm uses too much power and device has a relatively
low battery level we may want to limit recompression to use only a lower
priority algorithm, which uses less power.

Introduce algo= parameter support to recompression sysfs knob so that
user-sapce can request recompression with particular algorithm only:

  echo "type=idle algo=zstd" > /sys/block/zramX/recompress
