mm/zsmalloc: add statistics support

Keeping fragmentation of zsmalloc in a low level is our target.  But now
we still need to add the debug code in zsmalloc to get the quantitative
data.

This patch adds a new configuration CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT to enable the
statistics collection for developers.  Currently only the objects
statatitics in each class are collected.  User can get the information via
debugfs.

     cat /sys/kernel/debug/zsmalloc/zram0/...

For example:

After I copied "jdk-8u25-linux-x64.tar.gz" to zram with ext4 filesystem:
 class  size obj_allocated   obj_used pages_used

   202  3264             0          0          0
   254  4096         36209      36209      36209

 Total               37022      36326      36288

We can calculate the overall fragentation by the last line:
    Total               37022      36326      36288
    (37022 - 36326) / 37022 = 1.87%

Also by analysing objects alocated in every class we know why we got so
low fragmentation: Most of the allocated objects is in <class 254>.  And
there is only 1 page in class 254 zspage.  So, No fragmentation will be
introduced by allocating objs in class 254.

And in future, we can collect other zsmalloc statistics as we need and
analyse them.
