zsmalloc: always keep per-class stats
Always account per-class `zs_size_stat' stats. This data will help us make better decisions during compaction. We are especially interested in OBJ_ALLOCATED and OBJ_USED, which can tell us if class compaction will result in any memory gain. For instance, we know the number of allocated objects in the class, the number of objects being used (so we also know how many objects are not used) and the number of objects per-page. So we can ensure if we have enough unused objects to form at least one ZS_EMPTY zspage during compaction. We calculate this value on per-class basis so we can calculate a total number of zspages that can be released. Which is exactly what a shrinker wants to know.
