zram: deprecate zram attrs sysfs nodes
Add Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram file and list obsolete and deprecated attributes there. The patch also adds additional information to zram documentation and describes the basic strategy: - the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in 4.11) - deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in 4.11) Users will be additionally notified about deprecated attr usage by pr_warn_once() (added to every deprecated attr _show()), as suggested by Minchan Kim. User space is advised to use zram<id>/stat, zram<id>/io_stat and zram<id>/mm_stat files. Signed-off-by:Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> Reported-by:
