This is a part of the effort to reduce the size of struct page to unsigned long and enable dynamic allocation of memory descriptors. While [1] outlines this ultimate objective, the current use of struct page is highly dependent on its definition, making it challenging to separately allocate memory descriptors. Therefore, this series introduces new descriptor for zsmalloc, called zsdesc. It overlays struct page for now, but will eventually be allocated independently in the future. And apart from dynamic allocation of descriptors, this is a nice cleanup.
