Hi Andrew,

Could you drop this patchset?

I will send updated version based on Sergey with some bug fixes.

zram-handle-multiple-pages-attached-bios-bvec.patch
zram-partial-io-refactoring.patch
zram-use-zram_slot_lock-instead-of-raw-bit_spin_lock-op.patch
zram-remove-zram_meta-structure.patch

Thanks!
