[ Upstream commit 1aedcafbf32b3f232c159b14cd0d423fcfe2b861 ]

Use BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in zs_map_object().  This is not a new
BUG_ON(), it's always been there, but was recently changed to
VM_BUG_ON().  There are several problems there.  First, we use use
per-CPU mappings both in zsmalloc and in zram, and interrupt may easily
corrupt those buffers.  Second, and more importantly, we believe it's
possible to start leaking sensitive information.  Consider the following
case:

-> process P
        swap out
         zram
          per-cpu mapping CPU1
           compress page A
-> IRQ

        swap out
         zram
          per-cpu mapping CPU1
           compress page B
            write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool
        iret

-> process P
            write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool  [*]
        return

* so we store overwritten data that actually belongs to another
  page (task) and potentially contains sensitive data. And when
  process P will page fault it's going to read (swap in) that
  other task's data.
