Description:
There are some redundant function parameters related to InnoDB compression:

buf_block_alloc(): ulint zip_size is always 0
buf_LRU_get_free_block(): ulint zip_size is always 0
buf_LRU_free_block(): ibool* buf_pool_mutex_released is always NULL

How to repeat:
Read the code.

Suggested fix:
Replace the parameters with constants and simplify the code.
