This is the case the "compressed" data is larger than the original data,
it is better to return -ENOSPC which can help zswap record a poor compr
rather than an invalid request.  Then we get more friendly counting for
reject_compress_poor in debugfs.

 bool zswap_store(struct folio *folio)
 {
 	...
 	ret = zpool_malloc(zpool, dlen, gfp, &handle);
 	if (ret == -ENOSPC) {
 		zswap_reject_compress_poor++;
 		goto put_dstmem;
 	}
 	if (ret) {
 		zswap_reject_alloc_fail++;
 		goto put_dstmem;
 	}
 	...
 }

Also, zbud_alloc() and z3fold_alloc() are returning ENOSPC in the same
case, eg

 static int z3fold_alloc(struct z3fold_pool *pool, size_t size, gfp_t gfp,
 			unsigned long *handle)
 {
 	...
 	if (!size || (gfp & __GFP_HIGHMEM))
 		return -EINVAL;

 	if (size > PAGE_SIZE)
 		return -ENOSPC;
 	...
 }
