mm/zswap: use workqueue to destroy pool

Add a work_struct to struct zswap_pool, and change __zswap_pool_empty to
use the workqueue instead of using call_rcu().

When zswap destroys a pool no longer in use, it uses call_rcu() to
perform the destruction/freeing.  Since that executes in softirq
context, it must not sleep.  However, actually destroying the pool
involves freeing the per-cpu compressors (which requires locking the
cpu_add_remove_lock mutex) and freeing the zpool, for which the
implementation may sleep (e.g.  zsmalloc calls kmem_cache_destroy, which
locks the slab_mutex).  So if either mutex is currently taken, or any
other part of the compressor or zpool implementation sleeps, it will
result in a BUG().

It's not easy to reproduce this when changing zswap's params normally.
In testing with a loaded system, this does not fail:

  $ cd /sys/module/zswap/parameters
  $ echo lz4 > compressor ; echo zsmalloc > zpool

nor does this:

  $ while true ; do
  > echo lzo > compressor ; echo zbud > zpool
  > sleep 1
  > echo lz4 > compressor ; echo zsmalloc > zpool
  > sleep 1
  > done

although it's still possible either of those might fail, depending on
whether anything else besides zswap has locked the mutexes.

However, changing a parameter with no delay immediately causes the
schedule while atomic BUG:

  $ while true ; do
  > echo lzo > compressor ; echo lz4 > compressor
  > done

This is essentially the same as Yu Zhao's proposed patch to zsmalloc,
but moved to zswap, to cover compressor and zpool freeing.
