Patch series "Fix the compatibility of zsmalloc and zswap". Patch #1 adds a flag to zpool, then zswap used to determine if zpool drivers such as zbud/z3fold/zsmalloc will enter an atomic context after mapping. The difference between zbud/z3fold and zsmalloc is that zsmalloc requires an atomic context that since its map function holds a preempt-disabled, but zbud/z3fold don't require an atomic context. So patch #2 sets flag sleep_mapped to true indicating that zbud/z3fold can sleep after mapping. zsmalloc didn't support sleep after mapping, so don't set that flag to true. This patch (of 2): Add a flag to zpool, named is "can_sleep_mapped", and have it set true for zbud/z3fold, not set this flag for zsmalloc, so its default value is false. Then zswap could go the current path if the flag is true; and if it's false, copy data from src to a temporary buffer, then unmap the handle, take the mutex, process the buffer instead of src to avoid sleeping function called from atomic context.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
