Subject[PATCH] zsmalloc: partial page ordering within a fullness_list
Date
We want to see more ZS_FULL pages and less ZS_ALMOST_{FULL, EMPTY}
pages. Put a page with higher ->inuse count first within its
->fullness_list, which will give us better chances to fill up this
page with new objects (find_get_zspage() return ->fullness_list head
for new object allocation), so some zspages will become
ZS_ALMOST_FULL/ZS_FULL quicker.

It performs a trivial and cheap ->inuse compare which does not
slow down zsmalloc and in the worst case keeps the list pages in
no particular order.

A more expensive solution could sort fullness_list by ->inuse count.
