Subject: Re: [RFC 3/3] zram: limit memory size for zram

Another idea: we could define void zs_limit_mem(unsinged long nr_pages)
in zsmalloc and put the limit in zs_pool via new API from zram so that
zs_malloc could be failed as soon as it exceeds the limit.

In the end, zram doesn't need to call zs_get_total_size_bytes on every
write. It's more clean and right layer, IMHO.
