I don't think it's a good idea. It just breaks zpool abstraction
in that it exposes internal implementation to user to avoid issue
zswap recently introduced. It also conflicts zpool_map_handle's
semantic.

Rather than introducing another break in zpool due to the new
zswap feature recenlty introduced, zswap could introduce
CONFIG_ZSWAP_HW_COMPRESSOR. Once it's configured, zsmalloc could
be disabled. And with disabling CONFIG_ZSWAP_HW_COMPRESSOR, zswap
doesn't need to make any bounce buffer copy so that no existing
zsmalloc user will see performance regression.
