How ZRAM is needed? Why Fedora cannot boot without it? Debian, which I
use on my arm64 boards, does not have any problem.

I kind of repeat comments from similar patch earlier:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/fe1e74a2-e933-7cd9-f740-86d871076191@linaro.org/

About XFS: I don't think it is needed to boot anything.

This is a defconfig, not a distro config. Please don't make it distro.

I will gladly support things needed by systemd or equivalent, but not
unusual filesystems needed by distro.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
