[PATCH 6/6] zsmalloc: make sure we select best zspage size
From: Sergey Senozhatsky
Date: Mon Oct 24 2022 - 13:39:37 EST
We currently decide the best zspage size by looking at
used percentage value. This is not exactly enough as
zspage usage percentage calculation is not accurate.
For example, let's look at size class 208
pages per zspage wasted bytes used%
1 144 96
2 80 99
3 16 99
4 160 99
We will select 2 page per zspage configuration, as it
is the first one to reach 99%. However, 3 pages per
zspage wastes less memory. Hence we need to also consider
wasted space metrics when device zspage size.
Additionally, rename max_usedpc_order because it does
not hold zspage order, it holds maximum pages per-zspage
value.
