Subject: [PATCH 0/7][linux-next v2] ramzswap: bug fixes and some cleanups

ramzswap driver creates virtual block devices which can
be used (only) as swap disks. Pages swapped to these disks
are compressed and stored in memory itself. Project home:
http://code.google.com/p/compcache/

These patches apply to linux-next.

Signed-off-by: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@...are.org>

Nitin Gupta (7):
  Use lock for 64-bit stats
  Flush block device before reset
  Set block size to PAGE_SIZE
  Return proper error code on device create failure
  Remove redundant check for zero page
  Handle case for invalid backing swap
  Update copyright notice
