[PATCH v2] mm/zsmalloc: don't need to reserve LSB in handle

[Chengming Zhou]

We will save allocated tag in the object header to indicate that it's
allocated.

	handle |= OBJ_ALLOCATED_TAG;

So the object header needs to reserve LSB for this tag bit.

But the handle itself doesn't need to reserve LSB to save tag, since
it's only used to find the position of object, by (pfn + obj_idx).
So remove LSB reserve from handle, one more bit can be used as obj_idx.
