The patchset removes a couple of memcpy in zswap and crypto
to improve zswap's performance.

Thanks for Chengming Zhou's test and perf data.
Quote from Chengming,
 I just tested these three patches on my server, found improvement in the
 kernel build testcase on a tmpfs with zswap (lz4 + zsmalloc) enabled.

This patchset applies to mm-unstable as recently zswap has
lots of change.

-v5:
  * remove the helper of exposing algorithm flags, alternative directly
    expose acomp_is_async() by test ASYNC flag according to Herbert;
  * remove the fixes of cra_flags for intel and hisilicon async drivers,
    they are separated patches[1] according to Herbert

Barry Song (3):
  crypto: introduce: acomp_is_async to expose if comp drivers might
    sleep
  mm/zswap: remove the memcpy if acomp is not sleepable
  crypto: scompress: remove memcpy if sg_nents is 1
