Since we have supported handling discard request in this commit
f4659d8e620d08bd1a84a8aec5d2f5294a242764 (zram: support REQ_DISCARD), zram got
one more chance to free unused memory whenever received discard request. But
without stating for discard request, there is no method for user to know whether
discard request has been handled by zram or how many blocks were discarded by
zram when user wants to know the effect of discard.
In this patch, we add num_discard_req to stat discard request and add
num_discarded to stat real discarded blocks, and export them to sysfs for users.
* From v1
* Update zram document to show num_discards in statistics list.
* From v2
* Update description of this patch with clear goal.
* From v3
* Stat discard request and discarded pages separately as "previous stat
indicates lots of free page discarded without real freeing, so the stat makes
our user's misunderstanding" pointed out by Minchan Kim.
