mm/zswap: change zswap_pool kref to percpu_ref

Browse source

All zswap entries will take a reference of zswap_pool when zswap_store(),
and drop it when free.  Change it to use the percpu_ref is better for
scalability performance.

Although percpu_ref use a bit more memory which should be ok for our use
case, since we almost have only one zswap_pool to be using.  The
performance gain is for zswap_store/load hotpath.

Testing kernel build (32 threads) in tmpfs with memory.max=2GB.  (zswap
shrinker and writeback enabled with one 50GB swapfile, on a 128 CPUs
x86-64 machine, below is the average of 5 runs)
