Do you have any reason to change show and set placement? Otherwise,
please keep the function order to reduce unnecesssary churns.

Just open question(I might be too paranoid?)
I am thinking someone want to add third comp algorithm in future
to balance decompression and memory efficiency.
If it's not too crazy idea, let's think about the interface.
Maybe, could we make the recomp knobs works like list?
# A primary comp
echo "A" > /zram/comp_algo
# Multiple secondary comps
echo "B threshold" > /zram/add_recomp_algo
echo "C threshold" > /zram/add_recomp_algo
echo "D threshold" > /zram/add_recomp_algo
"cat /zram/recomp_algo" shows the list
echo "C" > /zram/remove_recomp_algo
will remove the C algorithm in stack.
My point is that we don't need to implement it atm but makes the
interface to open the possibility for future extension.
What do you think?

Dumb question:
Why do you use IS_ENABLED instead of ifdef?
