This patchset introduces a new memory allocation library named
zsmalloc.  zsmalloc was designed to fulfill the needs
of users where:
 1) Memory is constrained, preventing contiguous page allocations
    larger than order 0 and
 2) Allocations are all/commonly greater than half a page.
As this is submitted during the merge window, I don't have any time to
look at it until after 3.3-rc1 is out.

I'll queue it up for then.
Thanks Greg!

I forgot to specify in the cover letter, this patch is based on
v3.2 PLUS my zv stat fix (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/30/48) 
and crypto API support patch v2 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/3/263).
Both have been Acked by Dan and Nitin had Acked v1 of the crypto API
support patch. Everything should merge cleanly if applied in that
order.
