In general, zram is somewhat related to memory management but these zram
patches mainly deal with handling generic I/O requests. So, I just posted
them on linux-kernel. Even if changes were made to xvmalloc, I doubt
if anyone at -mm would be interested in a driver specific allocator.

I *guess* anything experimental goes to linux-next and if thats related
directly to core mm, it goes to --mmotm also.
