Currently, zsmalloc creates kmem_cache of handles and zspages for each
pool, which may be suboptimal from the memory usage point of view (extra
internal fragmentation per pool).  Systems that create multiple zsmalloc
pools may benefit from shared common zsmalloc caches.

Make handles and zspages kmem caches global.  The memory savings depend on
particular setup and data patterns and can be found via slabinfo.
