Both zram and zcache use xvmalloc allocator. If xvmalloc
is compiled separately for both of them, we will get linker
error if they are both selected as "built-in". We can also
get linker error regarding missing xvmalloc symbols if zram
is not built.

So, we now compile xvmalloc separately and export its symbols
which are then used by both of zram and zcache.

but what does this patch apply to?  It does not apply cleanly to
linux-next of 20110210.

This applies to staging-2.6. I thought linux-next won't be that
different so as to produce conflicts. Can you please send reject files,
or let me fetch linux-next tree and will soon post patch against the same.

I'll let you fetch linux-next.  I merged it by hand and test-built it
successfully.
