zswap gets the fun of being the first crypto compression consumer to
switch to the new api? ;-)

It looks like the crypto_scomp interface is buried under
include/crypto/internal/scompress.h, however that's exactly what zswap
should be using.  We don't need to switch to an asynchronous interface
that's rather significantly more complicated, and then use it in a
synchronous way.  The crypto_scomp interface should probably be made
public, not an implementation internal.
