I just pulled mm/mm-unstable and ready to update, but find Andrew has 
already helped to change the subject and commit message as below, which
is great enough! Thanks!

     mm/zsmalloc: clarify class per-fullness zspage counts

     We always use insert_zspage() and remove_zspage() to update zspage's
     fullness location, which will account correctly.

     But this special async free path use "splice" instead of 
remove_zspage(),
     so the per-fullness zspage count for ZS_INUSE_RATIO_0 won't decrease.

     Clean things up by decreasing when iterate over the zspage free list.

     This doesn't actually fix anything.  ZS_INUSE_RATIO_0 is just a
     "placeholder" which is never used anywhere.
