From: Andi Kleen <ak at linux.intel.com>

Mainly so that ubifs can use it.

Snappy is a better compressor in the same niche as LZO.

Only lightly tested so far. Experiences welcome.

+	  snappy is a faster alternative to the lzo compression algorithm
+	  with comparable compression. It is very fast on 64bit systems, but also
+	  good on 32bit systems. It especially excels at already compressed data.
