This change introduces an aged idle interface to the existing
idle sysfs file for zram.
When CONFIG_ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING is enabled the idle file
now also accepts an integer argument. This integer is the
age (in seconds) of pages to mark as idle. The idle file
still supports 'all' as it always has. This new approach
allows for much more control over which pages get marked
as idle.
v2 -> v3:
- Correct unused variable warning when
CONFIG_ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING is not enabled.
v1 -> v2:
- Switch to using existing idle file.
- Dont compare ktime directly.

From now on, any pages on zram are idle pages. The idle mark
will be removed until someone requests access of the block.
IOW, unless there is access request, those pages are still idle pages.
+Additionally, when CONFIG_ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING is enabled pages can be
+marked as idle based on how long (in seconds) it's been since they were
+last accessed, in seconds::
+
+ echo 86400 > /sys/block/zramX/idle
+
+In this example all pages which haven't been accessed in more than 86400
+seconds (one day) will be marked idle.
Admin can request writeback of those idle pages at right timing via::
