mm/zsmalloc: support allocating obj with size of ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE 

I sent a patch [1] for unnecessary check in zsmalloc.  And Minchan Kim
found zsmalloc even does not support allocating an obj with the size of
ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE in some situations.

For example:
   In system with 64KB PAGE_SIZE and 32 bit of physical addr. Then:
   ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE is 32 bytes which is calculated by:
      MAX(32, (ZS_MAX_PAGES_PER_ZSPAGE << PAGE_SHIFT >> OBJ_INDEX_BITS))
   ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE is 64KB(in current code, is PAGE_SIZE)
   ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA is 256 bytes
   So, ZS_SIZE_CLASSES = (ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE - ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE) /
                          ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA + 1
                       = 256

   In zs_create_pool(), the max size obj which can be allocated will be:
      ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE + i * ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA = 32 + 255*256 = 65312

   We can see that 65312 < 65536 (ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE). So we can NOT
   allocate objs with size ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE(65536) which we promise upper
   users we can do.

This patch fixes this issue by dynamiclly calculating zs_size_classes when
module is loaded, allocates buffer with size ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE.  Then the
max obj(size is ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE) can be stored in it.
