3.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <[email protected]>

commit 069f101fa463351f528773d73b74e9b606b3f66a upstream.

ZSMALLOC is tristate, but the code has no MODULE_LICENSE and since it
depends on GPL-only symbols it cannot be loaded as a module.  This in
turn breaks zram which now depends on it.  I assume it's meant to be
Dual BSD/GPL like the other z-stuff.

There is also no module_exit, which will make it impossible to unload.
Add the appropriate module_init and module_exit declarations suggested
by comments.
