This patch adds a separate per-cpu batching acomp context "acomp_batch_ctx"
to the zswap_pool. The per-cpu acomp_batch_ctx pointer is allocated at pool
creation time, but no per-cpu resources are allocated for it.
The idea is to not incur the memory footprint cost of multiple acomp_reqs
and buffers in the existing "acomp_ctx" for cases where compress batching
is not possible; for instance, with software compressor algorithms, on
systems without IAA, on systems with IAA that want to run the existing
non-batching implementation of zswap_store() of large folios.
By creating a separate acomp_batch_ctx, we have the ability to allocate
additional memory per-cpu only if the zswap compressor supports batching,
and if the user wants to enable the use of compress batching in
zswap_store() to improve swapout performance of large folios.

This isn't needed if the sysctl is removed and we just allocate the
number of buffers during pool initialization, right? Same for the next
patch.
