[PATCH] [staging][zram] Fix handling of incompressible pages

From: Nitin Gupta
Date: Mon Oct 08 2012 - 21:32:45 EST


Change 130f315a introduced a bug in the handling of incompressible
pages which resulted in memory allocation failure for such pages.
The fix is to store the page as-is i.e. without compression if the
compressed size exceeds a threshold (max_zpage_size) and request
exactly PAGE_SIZE sized buffer from zsmalloc.
