Gao Xiang 524887347f erofs: introduce multipage per-CPU buffers
To deal the with the cases which inplace decompression is infeasible
for some inplace I/O. Per-CPU buffers was introduced to get rid of page
allocation latency and thrash for low-latency decompression algorithms
such as lz4.

For the big pcluster feature, introduce multipage per-CPU buffers to
keep such inplace I/O pclusters temporarily as well but note that
per-CPU pages are just consecutive virtually.

When a new big pcluster fs is mounted, its max pclustersize will be
read and per-CPU buffers can be growed if needed. Shrinking adjustable
per-CPU buffers is more complex (because we don't know if such size
is still be used), so currently just release them all when unloading.

Vladimir Zapolskiy a426ce9d67 erofs: remove a void EROFS_VERSION macro set in Makefile
Since commit 4f761fa253 ("erofs: rename errln/infoln/debugln to
erofs_{err, info, dbg}") the defined macro EROFS_VERSION has no affect,
therefore removing it from the Makefile is a non-functional change.

Gao Xiang 47e4937a4a erofs: move erofs out of staging
EROFS filesystem has been merged into linux-staging for a year.

EROFS is designed to be a better solution of saving extra storage
space with guaranteed end-to-end performance for read-only files
with the help of reduced metadata, fixed-sized output compression
and decompression inplace technologies.

In the past year, EROFS was greatly improved by many people as
a staging driver, self-tested, betaed by a large number of our
internal users, successfully applied to almost all in-service
HUAWEI smartphones as the part of EMUI 9.1 and proven to be stable
enough to be moved out of staging.

EROFS is a self-contained filesystem driver. Although there are
still some TODOs to be more generic, we have a dedicated team
actively keeping on working on EROFS in order to make it better
with the evolution of Linux kernel as the other in-kernel filesystems.

As Pavel suggested, it's better to do as one commit since git
can do moves and all histories will be saved in this way.

Let's promote it from staging and enhance it more actively as
a "real" part of kernel for more wider scenarios!
