So this is what that BUILD_BUG_ON() is supposed to catch. You don't
have any backends selected in your .config:

# CONFIG_ZRAM_BACKEND_LZO is not set
# CONFIG_ZRAM_BACKEND_LZ4 is not set
# CONFIG_ZRAM_BACKEND_LZ4HC is not set
# CONFIG_ZRAM_BACKEND_ZSTD is not set
# CONFIG_ZRAM_BACKEND_DEFLATE is not set
CONFIG_ZRAM_DEF_COMP="unset-value"

Which is invalid configuration because it means that zram has no
compression enabled.
