Previously zram write() was atomic which required us to pass __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to zsmalloc handle allocation on a fast path and attempt a slow path allocation (with recompression) if the fast path failed. Since we are not in atomic context anymore we can permit direct reclaim during handle allocation, and hence can have a single allocation path. There is no slow path anymore so we don't unlock per-CPU stream (and don't lose compressed data) which means that there is no need to do recompression now (which should reduce CPU and battery usage).

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 reStructuredText 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.
