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:
