mm/zsmalloc: add trace events for zs_compact
Currently zsmalloc is widely used in android device. Sometimes, we want
to see how frequently zs_compact is triggered or how may pages freed by
zs_compact(), or which zsmalloc pool is compacted.
We have backported the zs_compact() to our product(kernel 3.18). It is
usefull for a longtime running device. But there is not a convenient
way to get the detailed information of zs_comapct() which is usefull
for performance optimization. Information about how much time
zs_compact used, which pool is compacted, how many page freed, etc.
With these information, we will know what is going on in zs_comapct.
And draw the relation between free mem and zs_comapct.
Most of the time, user can get the brief information from
trace_mm_shrink_slab_[start | end], but in some senario, they do not use
zsmalloc shrinker, but trigger compaction manually. So add some trace
events in zs_compact is convenient. Also we can add some zsmalloc
specific information(pool name, total compact pages, etc) in zsmalloc
trace.
This patch add two trace events for zs_compact(), below the trace log:
-----------------------------
