[PATCH 07/15] xen: tmem: enable Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module

From: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer at oracle.com>

Allow Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module.  Xen self-ballooning
and frontswap-selfshrinking are now also "lazily" initialized when the
Xen tmem shim is loaded as a module, unless explicitly disabled
by module parameters.

Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy
initialization patches are not present.

If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling via
a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered deprecated.

Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported.
