[PATCH] power: Changed CMP_THREADS from hardwired value to configurable value

[Jay Penny]

I don't know what the rules are (unspoken or otherwise) for stating
that this is your patch - The CoC doesn't say anything regarding it,
so I'm just going to mention it here. This is my first kernel patch,
so if I mess something up, it's due to a lack of experience on my part.

Changed CMP_THREADS in kernel/power/swap.c from a hardwired 3 threads,
to a configurable one, and created a corresponding config option in
kernel/power/Kconfig.

The fact that this is such a simple change that hasn't been made yet
probably means that it shouldn't be made. That, or I'm just being
pessimistic.
