Patch series "writeback incompressible pages to storage", v1. zRam is useful for memory saving with compressible pages but sometime, workload can be changed and system has lots of incompressible pages which is very harmful for zram. This patch supports writeback feature of zram so admin can set up a block device and with it, zram can save the memory via writing out the incompressile pages once it found it's incompressible pages (1/4 comp ratio) instead of keeping the page in memory. [1-3] is just clean up and [4-8] is step by step feature enablement. [4-8] is logically not bisectable(ie, logical unit separation) although I tried to compiled out without breaking but I think it would be better to review. This patch (of 9): __zram_bvec_write has some of duplicated logic for zram meta data handling of same_page|compressed_page. This patch aims to clean it up without behavior change.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
