[PATCH v2 3/3] zram: pass gfp from zcomp frontend to backend

From: Minchan Kim
Date: Wed Nov 25 2015 - 00:51:37 EST


Each zcomp backend uses own gfp flag but it's pointless
because the context they could be called is driven by upper
layer(ie, zcomp frontend). As well, zcomp frondend could
call them in different context. One context(ie, zram init part)
is it should be better to make sure successful allocation
other context(ie, further stream allocation part for accelarating
I/O speed) is just optional so let's pass gfp down from driver
(ie, zcomp frontend) like normal MM convention.
