Zswap uses 32 pools to workaround the locking scalability problem in
zsmalloc, which brings its own problems like memory waste and more
memory fragmentation.
Testing results show that we can have near performance with only one
pool in zswap after changing zsmalloc to use per-size_class lock instead
of pool spinlock.
Testing kernel build (make bzImage -j32) on tmpfs with memory.max=1GB,
and zswap shrinker enabled with 10GB swapfile on ext4.
