xen: tmem: enable Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module
Allow Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module. Xen self-ballooning and frontswap-selfshrinking are now also "lazily" initialized when the Xen tmem shim is loaded as a module, unless explicitly disabled by module parameters. Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy initialization patches are not present. If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling via a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered deprecated. Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported. [v1: Removed the [CLEANCACHE|FRONTSWAP]_HAS_LAZY_INIT ifdef] [v2: Squashed the xen/tmem: Remove the subsys call patch in] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build (disable_frontswap_selfshrinking undeclared)] Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Bob Liu <lliubbo@gmail.com> Cc: Wanpeng Li <liwanp@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Andor Daam <andor.daam@googlemail.com> Cc: Florian Schmaus <fschmaus@gmail.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Stefan Hengelein <ilendir@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
