Extend the support for LZ4 compression to be used with hibernation. The main idea is that different compression algorithms have different characteristics and hibernation may benefit when it uses any of these algorithms: a default algorithm, having higher compression rate but is slower(compression/decompression) and a secondary algorithm, that is faster(compression/decompression) but has lower compression rate. LZ4 algorithm has better decompression speeds over LZO. This reduces the hibernation image restore time. As per test results: LZO LZ4 Size before Compression(bytes) 682696704 682393600 Size after Compression(bytes) 146502402 155993547 Decompression Rate 335.02 MB/s 501.05 MB/s Restore time 4.4s 3.8s LZO is the default compression algorithm used for hibernation. Enable CONFIG_HIBERNATION_COMP_LZ4 to set the default compressor as LZ4.
