zswap: runtime enable/disable
Change the "enabled" parameter to be configurable at runtime. Remove the enabled check from init(), and move it to the frontswap store() function; when enabled, pages will be stored, and when disabled, pages won't be stored. This is almost identical to Seth's patch from 2 years ago: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1307.2/04289.html [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak documentation] Signed-off-by: Dan Streetman <ddstreet@ieee.org> Suggested-by: Seth Jennings <sjennings@variantweb.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
