Hi Nitin,
I gave zram a try on a ppc64 box with a 64kB PAGE_SIZE. It looks like the
xvmalloc allocator fails when we add in a large enough block (in this case
65532 bytes).
flindex ends up as 127 which is larger than BITS_PER_LONG. We continually call
grow_block inside find_block and fail:
zram: Error allocating memory for compressed page: 0, size=467
