I can, but I'm a little confused. The comment talks about replacing
the one I merged with this one, I can't do that. I'm assuming you
are talking about this commit:

commit 0bc315381fe9ed9fb91db8b0e82171b645ac008f

    zram: set physical queue limits to avoid array out of bounds accesses

which is in mainline. The patch still applies, though.

Do we really REALLY need this for 4.11, or can we queue for 4.12 and
mark it stable?
