zswap: runtime enable/disable
Change the "enabled" parameter to be configurable at runtime. Remove the
enabled check from init(), and move it to the frontswap store() function;
when enabled, pages will be stored, and when disabled, pages won't be
stored.
This is almost identical to Seth's patch from 2 years ago:
