zram: deprecate zram attrs sysfs nodes

Add Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram file and list obsolete and
deprecated attributes there.  The patch also adds additional information
to zram documentation and describes the basic strategy:

- the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in 4.11)
- deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in 4.11)

Users will be additionally notified about deprecated attr usage by
pr_warn_once() (added to every deprecated attr _show()), as suggested by
Minchan Kim.

User space is advised to use zram<id>/stat, zram<id>/io_stat and
zram<id>/mm_stat files.

+WARNING
+=======
+per-stat sysfs attributes are considered to be deprecated.
+The basic strategy is:
+-- the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in linux 4.11)
+-- deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in linux 4.11)
+
+The list of deprecated attributes can be found here:
+Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram
+
+Basically, every attribute that has its own read accessible sysfs node
+(e.g. num_reads) *AND* is accessible via one of the stat files (zram<id>/stat
+or zram<id>/io_stat or zram<id>/mm_stat) is considered to be deprecated.
+
+User space is advised to use the following files to read the device statistics.
